Tho Umpqun Fish lnko is actually
alive witii big trout, ouo of the great
est collection of tlio fresh wntor fish
on tho coast, mid the hardest to get.
Tlio wotor is 60 olonr that ouo can
sco a fish nt a depth of 30 feet, and
tlio fish apparently can soo you as
well. Thoy will como slowly up, ox
mnino a fly from each sido and thou
with an impertinent flirt of tlioir
tails dopnrt for tho lowor depths. But
if n breozo happens to rufflo tho
waters ouo can hnvo tho fishing of
his lifo. I hoy como in schools at the
fly. No sooner does tlio fly striku
tho water than tlio hungry trout
grabs it. Ono gets "tired pulling
thorn out."

they would ordinarily linvc lived for
