GOOD FISHING PLACES NEAR WORTHINGTON White and Eel Rivers Have Many Unfrequented Spots. Going flakin'? Then, naturally, you want to go where the fish are; in other words, where there are more fish than fishermen. Such a place is a bit hard to find in recent years. The advent of the low priced automobile has caused a tremendous influx of people to the • banks of practically every stream •which might be fish bearing. Thus Is becomes continually harder to find a fishing place not overrun with picnickers and would-be fishermen. Few Places l^efft But happily there are a few places left where one can fish in peace and contentment; whore, if know a' bit of the science of angling a string of sizable fish can be taken in a few hours time. Both White Itiver and Mol River, at Worthington, offer such possibilities. Within easy reach of the town are numerous places, unmolested by hordes of autoists, where game fish abound. If the channel cats are not striking, black bass, crap pies and blue gills may be; all varieties are there. Good Rendezvous Hodden’s Tavern, on State Rd. 12, in Worthington, offers an ideal rendezvous for fishing parties. Its clean, homey appearance is appealing and the meals served are the talk of the traveling public throughout this section of the State. The accommodations are good; the rates are low. Quiet, congeial surroundings appeal to those seeking a truly rustic vacation. Numerous beautiful motor drives from Worthington add to its desirability as a vacation place.
