FOREWORD No GOOD FISHERMAN, IT IS SAID, EVER TELLS A STORY under oath. Yet in spite of the popular notion that all fish stories are fiction, there is a distinction between those which are purely recitals of presumable fact and those which are frankly narratives of fancy. While doubtless a substratum of truth underlies many of the angling tales included in this collection, all are believed to be fiction or at least fanciful reporting, written primarily to interest and entertain the reader. At any rate, fiction rather than fact was the common denominator used in assembling the stories. Strangely enough, few similar collections of angling yarns seem to have been made in this country, al- though, as Philip Wylie has pointed out, fishing is our great national sport. Far more money is spent by anglers on their favorite pursuit than is expended by the crowds which patronize the so-called spectator sports of baseball, football, boxing, et cetera. Only a 7 FOREWORD few million Americans play golf and tennis, but or- dinarily some twenty million go fishing every year, not counting those who fish for a living. All, or nearly all, the stories which follow are by professional writers, but writers, it is safe to say, who are or were also good fishermen. For it is difficult to imagine any non-angling author having the temerity to write about so ancient and refined a sport as fishing. It is no reflection on the work of those fishermen who are only incidentally writers that they are not more fully represented. Many of them write as skilfully as they fish, although it may as well be admitted that much that is written by anglers for anglers does not rate very high marks as literature. Here it was simply a case of the choice being a wide one and the election happening to go the other way. In time and space the stories chosen cover a wide range. Frank Forester, W. C. Prime, and Judge Hali- burton, the author of Sam Slick, wrote nearly a cen- tury ago. The trouting episode by Henry Ward Beecher is from his three-decker work, Norwood, or Village Life in New England, published in 1867. The stories by Frank Stockton and Guy de Maupassant date from the eighteen-eighties; while those by Henry van Dyke and Irving Bacheller were published at the turn of the century. Henry van Dyke said that "Crocker's Hole" by R. D. Blackmore, the author of Lorna Doone, was the greatest English fishing story. It first appeared in book form in Tales from the Tell- 8 FOREWORD ing-House, published in 1896. All the other stories are of much later vintage. Of the eighteen tales, one is French, four are Eng- lish, and the rest American. The latter range from Canada to Florida and beyond, and the collection as a whole covers a variety of fishing. Methods of catch- ing fish may differ somewhat in different countries, but fish themselves behave pretty much the same the whole world over. Obviously not a book of instruction in the craft of fishing, Great Fishing Stories may nevertheless en- hance the pleasure of exercising that craft in retro- spect and prospect.

Nick sat down on the bundle of canvas and bedding the baggage man had pitched out of the door of the baggage car. There was no town, nothing but the rails and the burned- over country. The thirteen saloons that had lined the one street of Seney had not left a trace. The founda- tions of the Mansion House hotel stuck up above the ground. The stone was chipped and split by the fire. It was all that was left of the town of Seney. Even the surface had been burned off the ground. Nick looked at the burned-over stretch of hillside, where he had expected to find the scattered houses of the town and then walked down the railroad track to the bridge over the river. The river was there. It swirled against the log spiles of the bridge. Nick looked down into the clear, brown water, colored from the pebbly bottom, and watched the trout keep- 15 GREAT FISHING STORIES ing themselves steady in the current with wavering fins. As he watched them they changed their positions by quick angles, only to hold steady in the fast water again. Nick watched them a long time. He watched them holding themselves with their noses into the current, many trout in deep, fast mov- ing water, slightly distorted as he watched far down through the glassy convex surface of the pool, its sur- face pushing and swelling smooth against the resist- ance of the log-driven piles of the bridge. At the bot- tom of the pool were the big trout. Nick did not see them at first. Then he saw them at the bottom of the pool, big trout looking to hold themselves on the gravel bottom in a varying mist of gravel and sand, raised in spurts by the current. Nick looked down into the pool from the bridge. It was a hot day. A kingfisher flew up the stream. It was a long time since Nick had looked into a stream and seen trout. They were very satisfactory. As the shadow of the kingfisher moved up the stream, a big trout shot upstream in a long angle, only his shadow marking the angle, then lost his shadow as he came through the surface of the water, caught the sun, and then, as he went back into the stream under the sur- face, his shadow seemed to float down the stream with the current, unresisting, to his post under the bridge where he tightened facing up into the current. Nick's heart tightened as the trout moved. He felt all the old feeling. 16 BIG TWO-HEARTED RIVER He turned and looked down the stream. It stretched away, pebbly-bottomed with shallows and big boul- ders and a deep pool as it curved away around the foot of a bluff. Nick walked back up the ties to where his pack lay in the cinders beside the railway track. He was happy. He adjusted the pack harness around the bundle, pulling straps tight, slung the pack on his back, got his arms through the shoulder straps and took some of the pull off his shoulders by leaning his forehead against the wide band of the tump-line.

  • Somerset Geology-A Good Rock Guide
    SOMERSET GEOLOGY-A GOOD ROCK GUIDE Hugh Prudden The great unconformity figured by De la Beche WELCOME TO SOMERSET Welcome to green fields, wild flower meadows, farm cider, Cheddar cheese, picturesque villages, wild moorland, peat moors, a spectacular coastline, quiet country lanes…… To which we can add a wealth of geological features. The gorge and caves at Cheddar are well-known. Further east near Frome there are Silurian volcanics, Carboniferous Limestone outcrops, Variscan thrust tectonics, Permo-Triassic conglomerates, sediment-filled fissures, a classic unconformity, Jurassic clays and limestones, Cretaceous Greensand and Chalk topped with Tertiary remnants including sarsen stones-a veritable geological park! Elsewhere in Mendip are reminders of coal and lead mining both in the field and museums. Today the Mendips are a major source of aggregates. The Mesozoic formations curve in an arc through southwest and southeast Somerset creating vales and escarpments that define the landscape and clearly have influenced the patterns of soils, land use and settlement as at Porlock. The church building stones mark the outcrops. Wilder country can be found in the Quantocks, Brendon Hills and Exmoor which are underlain by rocks of Devonian age and within which lie sunken blocks (half-grabens) containing Permo-Triassic sediments. The coastline contains exposures of Devonian sediments and tectonics west of Minehead adjoining the classic exposures of Mesozoic sediments and structural features which extend eastward to the Parrett estuary. The predominance of wave energy from the west and the large tidal range of the Bristol Channel has resulted in rapid cliff erosion and longshore drift to the east where there is a full suite of accretionary landforms: sandy beaches, storm ridges, salt marsh, and sand dunes popular with summer visitors.

    THE STOIC . :JX!tmber Ninety MARCH 1953 THE STOIC VOL. XV MARCH 1913 NO·5 DAY IN, DAY OUT, POOR STOIC ... T has recently come to our notice that people ate looking very tired. \Xlhen we first discovered this, we were surprised-until we realized I that we were very tired ourselves. 'n,e truth of the marter is that the average Stoic works far harder in the Easter term than in the other two, for the very good reason that there is so much more to do. In his addtess on ,\sh Wednesday last year, the Chaplain said that it was customary to give up something for Lent; that some people gave up sweets, some gave up sweating, and some gave up altogether. We know what he meant. For one thing, at no time in the term are Stoics engaged in less than two types of sport. As time goes on, Hockey is substituted for Rugby Football and Athletics for Cross-Country ; the change is one of name only, for the energy exhausted remains the same. Our vitality is further sapped by rehearsals for our House Plays; as the weeks roll on, these rehearsals last longer and longer until, shortly before the performances, it scarcely seems worth while going to bed at all. And there are the House Music Competitions, a terrible strain, as anybody who has ever taken part in them knows. The C.C.F. authorities devise rigorous tests of endurance for their Field Day, and do not exactly give us time to rest at other times either.
