  Sunset 1942 

As a 1942 sun would set for the evening all would go fishing again. There was nothing like being out on the water after dark and trolling back and forth with a large June Bug Spinner at the end of the line stacked with up to 6 night crawlers on the hook. It trailed through the water at about 30' to 50' out and you just knew the silver glimmer of the spinner was attracting a lot of fish. You could see them in your minds eye all-jockeying for position in the scent path of the bait. And you knew what they were. And you knew they were there. They were the biggest of the big - largemouth bass, and Walleye Pike, and Northern Pike. Yeah!!!
