The reports from all rocky reefs,
deep holes and boathouses are that fishing is looking up this year.
Whether it's 12-inch perch or 19-pound pike, the anecdotes are enticing,
even if the actual, documented evidence is thin.
The winner of this year's fishing tournament is Joos (pronounced Yose
with a long O and silent e) Berghausen with a 17-inch, three and a
half pound smallmouth bass. Congratulations Joos!
Please mark your calendars for next year's dates: July 27 through
August 2.
And please remember this pearl of wisdom from the late, great fisherman
Victor Shoberg: "If the fish are biting, you won't need much
bait. And if they're not, you won't need much either."
Sincerely,
Exaggeration police commandant,
Doug Heuck
