From table 16 it is evident that the rate of catch of bass in the afternoon period of the first day in each of the 4 years was less than one-half that in the morning period. In 3 of the 4 years there was a slight recovery in the morning of the second day, but the rate of catch on the third day ( in 1944) dropped to a level that was less than one-third that -\ - 1ST DAY 2ND DAY 3RD DAY 4TH DAY 5TH DAY Fig. 15.—Rate of catch (pounds per man-hour) of largemouth bass at Ridge Lake during the first week of public fishing in each of the years 1942, 1944, 1947, and 1949, and the average rate of catch for all of these Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Illinois.
