ThtOUIMORS BLACK BASS $1.00 PER POUND OR 20c PER POUND? j If you had m cliance tu sdl ulacli baas at $1.00 per pound instead of at 20c per pound, which price would you take? This question has been put to Florida residents as sentiment in the state grows for a stricter black bass law. According to reports to the Izaak Walton League, Florida, rich in beautiful lakes and streams which furnish some of the finest if not the best large mouth 1>lack bass fishing in the country, sold during 1927-28, 2,845,- 729 pounds of black bass which yielded a revenue of $569,141.80. Practically all of this catch was marketed outside of the state. Probably one-half of the purchase price stayed with the Floridans who sold the bass. Now, Florida conservationists, Waltonians and other sportsmen are pointing out how much black bass are worth to a state when they are "marketed" in the water to tourists who eome to the southern states to fish. Fish "sold" in this manner will create a revenue that is five times as great as that derived from the same amount of black bass sold through commerical channels. In other words a black bass on the end of a fisherman's line is worth five in an iced barrel. And instead of one man getting the revenue, hotels, boats, liveries, guides, sporting goods dealers, places of amusement, growers of fruit and vegetables and many other merchants get part of the increased revenue. No dollar is so widely or directly distributed as the sportsman's dollar, says C. C. Woodward, head of the Florida Department of Conservation. Florida Waltonians are marshalling their forces to saye the bass for the sportsman fisherman. Legislation to strengthen present bass laws is pending in several states, including Alabama, Indiana, Maryland, Missouri, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Tennesee, says the conservation department of the Izaak Walton League which is urging that states take this great game fish out of the commeifcial class. Campaigns which have the support of the game and fish departments in these states arfevbeing wapred to secure the passage of suitable legislation which will permit the enforcement of the Hawes federal black bass act.
