CHICAGO, ro; Te Chitago- _ ans are willing to “forgive and, - forget” about Rocky Graziano’s wartime indiscretions and let him return to boxing, but , . .

A Bonefish Real (Challenge to Fly-Rod Fans

By JOHN ALDEN KNIGHT Florida bonefish, as the saying goes, are indeed something.

Shy as brook trout, packed with streamlined power, they are a challenge to the fly-rod fans of the nation. Under proper conditions they take the fly readily, and they put up a terrific battle for freedom.

Lots of Disagreement ‘All fishermen have their theor-

fes but there is little agreement

among them. Some say that the bonefish will be “tailing” in the shallows on low ebb tide; other prefer low slack tide; still others like low, incoming tide. However, after nearly two weeks - of careful investigation, and observation, the whole mat-!. ter resolves itself down to this simple truth. Bonefish, like other game fish, feed during the Solunar Periods. That's all there is to it. What seem at first to be inconsistencies are due entirely to fishing locations. Tidal flow is quite variable here among the keys and different locations, purely because of geographic location, show variations of ‘an hour or so. The good {fishing
