Excerpt from Bait Angling for Common Fishes
There are many women who like to fish, but dislike to put a worm on and take a fish off the hook. This difficulty is soon overcome, if she explains to any boy, who will invariably place his services at her dis posal, and loudly applaud her luck.
The trout is not a bottom fish, but I have included it because at times it is fished for in that way.
For the methods Of fishing I have added to my own that practiced by other anglers, and for the descriptive habits I am indebted to the works of Brown Goode, Scott, Har ris, and mostly to The Food and Game Fish of New York, by my friend, Tarle ton H. Bean.
