WjfSS’ Well, Local Hopefuls, the month of April has almost run it's ccurse. Of course. that means that the Bass season is about to close for a while. Saturday, April 30, is the last day for legal Bass fishing, and the season will be closed until June 16. However, we want to again remind you that Bass are the only thing you can’t fish for, and the panfish season just reaches it's peak about this time of year. For a real thrill, get yourself an inexpensive fly rod, some light leader material, a can of red worms, and a big stringer. One of the most important hings mentioned above is the stringer, because the chances are more than good that you will need it. . . . THE SPORTSMAN'S SHOP “Putnam County’s Tackle Bo*”
