CHAPTER XXI.
HOME-MADE HUNTING APPARATUS, ETC.
Spearing Fish.
“I DON’T know! Shure I niver tried,” is the answer reported to have been made by an Irishman, when asked if he could play the fiddle. No doubt there are many boys who would give a like reply if asked if they could spear a fish.
An amateur’s first attempt at casting a spear will probably meet with about the same success as “Paddy” might be expected to achieve in his first trial of a fiddle; but almost anything can be accomplished by practice. The keen enjoyment of the fisher who by his skill and dexterity has succeeded in striking a fine fish, can only be compared to the pleasant triumph of his brother sportsman in the field who has just secured two birds by a difficult double-shot.
