TED KESTING'S
FIELD & STREAM
fji.
I have discovered an angler,
and a famous author to boot,
who unblushingly admits he . Is
a bait fisherman—and gets a
bang out of it. He is none O
than Edison Marshall who
“Benjamin Blake” and “Y
Pasha.” Marshall wltes so:
“If you can’t drop a plug or
fly in a slik hat don’t be asham
ed of chunking a live minnow
or frog into the great open
spaces of a pond! The widely
current belief that it is not
sport or sporting to fish with
bait is one of the most curious
myths that ever came into be
ing. True, the more lenient Iff
the sports czars tolerate cast
ing bait for pan fish, but bteftB.
bass never! . y *>
“The real truth is, bait fish
ing beats plug and fly casting
all to hollow in catching giant
bass. According to my taste,
live-bait fishing for black bass
is the acme of fresh-water an
gling, mainly because of that
long, breath-taking interval be
tween the disappearance of the
cork and the beginning battle.
Something is going to happen,
but you don’t know what.
“Chunking bait is not lagy
fishing. While it does not fur
nish the exercise demanded by
fly or plug casting, it should
satisfy most fishermen of around
50, and all fishermen who like
brief rests when they can watch
the clouds, the shadows in the
water, and varied wonderful
goings on of the pond. To get to
see these, and to contemplate
them, is a bonus that live-bait
fishing pays far beyond that paid
by more energetic fishing.
“I have discovered that the
shiner is far and away the
best minnow for bass. My lines
are 15-lb. test. Not for me are
flimsy threads of two-lb. bast,
to break unless I handle Jfeiy
fish like a basket of eggs.
corks are not more than 18
inches f
hooks. I
“According .
ancient art, belly-hooking ft the
bait fisherman’s favorite pas
time They forget that if, in
the act of swallowing, the fish
feels the merest scratch of the
hook, he is going to upchuck
fast. A belly-hooked fish is, by
and large, the sign of ah inept
bait fisherman—one who waits
too 7 long to strike and hence
loses most of his real chances.
The fisherman who hopes to boat
most of the bass that take his
bait knows he must strike as
when the /hook is inside the
fish’s lips, not a split second
sooner, no later. I know of no
sport that demands more skilled
timing.”

BIRTH OF A SON
Mr. and Mrs. Clarence W.
Dominick are receiving congratu-
lations upon the arrival of a son,
Melvin Dennis, at the Newberry
Gennty Memorial Hospital on
4th. Mrs. * Domi-
Theres been a lot of talk
about released fish dying or not
dying. But experiments have
pretty well proved that trout
caught on artificial flies, even
when handled roughly, can be
put back with practically no loss.
But those caught on live bait
present a much more serious
problem. Then, they usually
swallow the bait and gills or
other vital organs are badly
damaged. A fish so caught al
most always dies.
Most game authorities recog
nize this, and since live-bait
fishing is so prevalent, insist
that anglers keep all the trout
they land. Only where artificial
lures are permitted could there
be no objection to allowing an
angler to release his small fish.
Now a bass is a much hardier
fish than a trout, and there’4
even less. likelihood of one
caught on artlcical bait dying
after having been released. But
even a bass could not be expect
ed to survive damage to vital or
gans. The case is much the same
with walleyes, which take an
artificial lure lightly, with the
lips, as a bass does. True pike
present a more serious problem
since a pike often takes an arti
ficial lure so savagely and deep
ly as to be hooked on the gills
inside, and such an Injury often
causes prompt bleeding to death.
Great care should be used in
releasing a pike hooked deeply.
Use a strong gag to hold its
mouth open, and a long disgorger
to remove the hook. The same
apples to musky, although he
doesn’t seem to take a lure as
deeply as a pike. But since sk
musky is a rather rare fish, no
time or pains should be spared
in releasing one uninjured.
Here’s a tip from angling au
thority Jason Lucas: . A pike is
more likely to be hooked and
landed on a single tail hook
than on a number of trebles,
and this means much less dan
ger of injury. Also, a pike often
shows much more preference for
casting spoons, generally fitted
with tail hooks only. A treble
at the tail can easily be ex
changed for a single—use one
