"THAT Uilul i, ( W A,-KK THAN HOCK ITSKLK" the bar will generally be found to yield a tisli or two if perseveringly coaxed. The lily pads on the east side of the lake contain very large bass, and that spot is splendid evening fishing. Minnows, frogs and artificial baits all have their respective admirers, but I am convinced from personal experience the ground around the bar will yield bigger catches to the angler who uses minnows than any other.
