A Fish Story

THE ODDS against catching a black large-mouc‘h bass than: would tip the scales at 15 pounds. or over. are roughly 12.000 to 1. If that lucky day ever dawned when you hooked one that big. the chances are they would plaster your face three columns wide on the sports page and nominate you for the fisherman’s Hall of Fame. Yet the man who caught the biggest black bass in history—a 22 pound. four ounce monster. whose open mouth would fit around a small outboard motor——simpl_v registered the fish and backed into obscurity for 20 years. All he netted for his grand catch was a fast $125.

Finally the disheartened Page begar 'y Perry yelled: “Hold it! ‘ His line went ‘tlerut with a galvanic jerk. in a split-second. his rod bent doublt and 50 yards of line ripped from the reel. The furious, splashing battle went on for 10 minutes. raw from braking the reel. His shoulders and back ached from the unremitting pressure.

But when the giant leaped with a silvry flash out of the water. writhing in an attempt to throw out the hooks, Perry and Page gasped at Its size and. hung on. The bass made one furious lunge for safety. and then turned limp.
