River Conditions Are
Poor For Angling
Bass season starts to-morrow!
River conditions to-day were not
very inviting. On the west side the
Susquehanna is muddy. The smaller
streams because of yesterday's rain,
are also swollen and yellow.
Indications are, however, that
many fishermen will take a day off
to-morrow, and try their luck. Deal
ers report large sales of fishing tackle.
Bait fish is also for sale in large quan
tities but minnows are acarce, and are
worth two and three cents each.
