There are many persons who deplore the passing of the summer season and fishing, but the advent of fall, the cool, brisk days bring compensation. It her- alds the approaching hunt- ing season, a pre-dawn wait in s specially prepared "blind", a tramp through woods gaily bedecked with autumn tinged foliage, or a cross country jaunt with bird dog over recently cleared fields which have given up their summer
