Ossss For B*_*lel*g
Tomoorrow is April 15, the
day when trout season in Pennsylvania opens and it is causing
ths heart ot the many Izaak
Waltons to leap with y>y. It is
slmost an epochal period in the
state for the time has tben arrived
when tbe fellow wbo longs to go
after the speckled beauties will
bsve the opportunity. For msny
weary weeks psst disciples ot ths
piscatorial art have besa longing
for tbs time when tbey could
tsks down their rods, get ont
thsir creels and other tackle and
wend thsir way to the silvery
brook and endeavor to lure the
wily trout from their watery retreat, and now that tbeir desire is
about to be realized, they, hava
made great preparation for tbe
opening day. Well laid plans have
been made by scores of fishermen
for weeks past and the day will
witness a general exodus of
Bellwood fisherman to most
all.parts of Central Penn. or at
least to tbe atresias wbere tbe
trout sbonnd.
The local streams will not receive the attention ot many ot
fishermen during the opening
period, but those in nssrby
counties whieh are larger and
wbere tne trout are said to
abound in large numbers, will
be the ones to be first visited.
Jeweler Barret, C. F. Jackson,
the barber, J. W. Mong, Earl B.
Mong, snd countless others,
anticipate inaugurating tbe sea-
t>   "f   ,  yr_TT;v |-||-)r a,,, a-_, ..ii. ilif'.aaaa''a*a.a»aarrr>
son along v anocoyoc run in the
Bald Eagle valley. Many members of tbe Logantis club will pay
a visit to Fishing creek, in Clinton coanty, wbere they have
erected a fine lodge and will
spend at least two daya along this
well known stream. A member of
tbe club was down that way a
tew days and bring back the joyful news that he never beiore saw
so many trout jumping in tbe
stream. This is one of the best
brooks in Central Penna. and is
visited annually by hundreds of
fishermen.
The fishermen are leaving tbis
afternoon by automobile and the
trains. Some will go tonight in
order to be on tbe streoms at tbe
flrat dawn of the day, and we
reckon that many will oome back
with well filled creels.
