Leadbetter, Masten and Morton Bring Home Tales of the Fish They Caught, Including 7-Pound Black Bass, Sept. 29, 1926

Successful Fishing Party

Messrs. D. W. Leadbetter, Fred L. Masten and Errol Morton spent several days last week down around Suffolk, Va., on a fishing party. Now it is well known that these three form about the most enthusiastic and successful fishing bunch in these diggings, and it is not surprising they bring back such wonderful tales of the fish they caught. However, in this instance they brought back fish to improve their statements. They report the landing of two black bass weighing seven pounds each, and say there was no end to the number tow- and three-pound bass caught.
