[1402]

I've, {F uh, } <> - /are you there? /

[1190]

Yes, sir, /I'm right here. /

[1402]

All right . /Okay, {F um, } /I'm in an area where, {F um, } we can, {F uh, } enjoy it year round, /{C so, } I've actually [ been, + {F uh, } {F uh, } been ] out within the past couple of weeks. /I'm mainly a freshwater fisherman. /How about yourself? /

[1190]

{D Well, } {D actually } I've done both kinds -- /

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

-- {F uh, } I'm originally from the State of Virginia --

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

-- and, {F uh, } lived [ near, + near ] Virginia Beach where we could, {F uh, } surf cast and, {F uh } --

[1402]

[ Did you ev-, +

[1190]

-- catch a lot of things in the ocean there. /

[1402]

Did you ever ] do the James River? /

[1190]

I don't believe I have fished the James River. /There's a possibility, but that was so long ago -- /

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

-- I moved here [ to, + to ] State College, {F uh, } in nineteen fifty-five -- /

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

-- {C and } that has pretty well limited my fishing to fresh water -- /

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

-- {C and } we have a lot of, {F uh, } beautiful fresh water streams that come through [ thi-, + this ] area. /I'm in an area called Center County, which is in the very center of the State of Pennsylvania, /

[1402]

[ I've + I've ] been in that area /{C and } the trout fishing is supposed to be legendary. /

[1190]

The trout fishing is really, {F uh, } beautiful. /As I say, [ the, + the ] streams are, {F oh, } eight, ten, fifteen feet wide and so forth, /{C and, } {F uh, } [ you, + you ] stand on the edge and [ you, + you ] cast out and [ you, + you ] work, {F uh, } from your feet most of the time -- /

[1402]

Uh-huh, /for brookies. -/

[1190]

-- {C and then } [ there are, + there are ] a few lakes of course, close /

[1402]

Yeah, /what do you like, brookies or, {F uh, } rainbows /{C or, } -/

[1190]

I, - /wherever the area, - /whatever [ the + ] fish is the specialist in that area, [ I, + {F uh, } I ] enjoy fishing for it, /{C and } I try to, - /I haven't fished in several years --

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

-- I'll have to admit, but when I do fish, I do contact, {F uh, } some of the local specialists --

[1402]

Yeah. /

[1190]

-- so that I can then find out [ the, + {F uh, } the ] type of lures that they use and where they fish, and any unique, {F uh, } techniques that would help you. /

[1402]

Do you fly fish, or are those streams too small? /

[1190]

{F Uh, } no, /[ we, + we ] fly fish. /

[1402]

Yeah. /

[1190]

Uh-huh. /

[1402]

I used to do that a little when I lived up in New York, /{C but } --

[1190]

Uh-huh. /

[1402]

-- right now it's, {F uh, } {F uh, } bass and striped bass is the only thing that I go for down [ in Dal-, + in, {F uh, } Texas. ] /

[1190]

{F Oh, } that's a pretty big fish. /

[1402]

{F Uh, } yeah, /[ they're, + they've, ] {F uh, } - /the striped bass have accommodated themselves to the big fresh water lakes, /{C and } they're pretty exciting [ when they're, + when they're ] running. /

[1190]

Uh-huh. /

[1402]

It's a salt water fish in fresh water, {F uh, } environment. /

[1190]

{D Well, } [ our, + our ] streams here are replanted with fish about every year --

[1402]

It's all put and take. /

[1190]

-- so that, {D well, } [ [ [ they, + they, ] + they, ] + {F uh, } they ] have a pretty good idea [ of, + of, ] {F uh, } what the number of fish are in these various locations, /[ {C and } -- +

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

-- {C and } ] they [ have + have ] certain areas that they plant, {D you know, } a hundred here and a hundred there, /{C and } this is, of course, X number of weeks or months before fishing season opens /{C so, } -/

[1402]

What's the season? /April to [ Sep-, + October ] or something like that? /

[1190]

That sounds about right -- /

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

-- uh-huh, /pretty close. /

[1402]

{F Uh } -- /

[1190]

{D You know. } -/

[1402]

-- what's a license cost? /

[1190]

{D Well, } as I say, it's been several years, /{C but } the licenses weren't that expensive, /I, - /seems to stick in my mind, five to seven dollars --

[1402]

Yeah. /

[1190]

-- is about all, from what I remember it. /

[1402]

Uh-huh. /It's about the same as Texas. /

[1190]

Uh-huh. /

[1402]

Yeah. /

[1190]

{C And } I have, {F oh, } probably a half a dozen different kinds of, {F uh, } fishing poles [ and, + and ] fly rods and so forth, /[ {C and, } + {C and } ] I had been so busy in my work in these last few years that I haven't had time to fish. /{C But } I'm going to be retiring at the end of December, /{C and } [ I, + I ] hope, {F uh, } the next fishing season, that I can sort of get back in and, {F uh, } enjoy that. /[ That, + that ] was a really enjoyable, {F uh, } thing for me to do. /

[1402]

{D Well, } I have all sons, so I think I'm probably going to be fishing for a long time . /

[1190]

{F Huh, } I just have one son and [ he, + he ] lives out of the state now, rather, in the eastern corner of it, /{C so, } I don't think he has time to fish either . /

[1402]

I caught the disease from my father, /{C and } I'm passing it on to my children. /It's really , -/

[1190]

{F Oh, } is that right? /

[1402]

They love it, /yeah. /

[1190]

{F Oh, } my goodness. /

[1402]

Right. /

[1190]

{D Well, } [ [ I, + I, ] + the disease I ] caught was simply because, {F uh, } [ I, + I ] was in the Norfolk Portsmouth area, /{C and } --

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

-- people there, - /[ there's, + there's ] so much water around --

[1402]

Right. /

[1190]

-- that, [ you, + you're ] either boating or you're fishing -- /

[1402]

Right. /

[1190]

-- {C and, } {F uh, } I fairly enjoyed at that time. - /I have a small aluminum boat here --

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

-- that, {F uh, } - /when I go on one of the large lakes that we have here [ that + ] I enjoy fishing [ for, + for ] trout from that, /

[1402]

{F Uh, } {F uh, } [ I don't, + I don't ] know about the lakes in central Pennsylvania. /Are there many? /

[1190]

{D Well, } as I say, I'm in Center County. /[ There's, + {F um, } there're ] two different size lakes about, {D well, } five, six miles from State College. /

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

{D Now } these aren't huge lakes from your point of view -- /

[1402]

Uh-huh. /

[1190]

-- {C but } they are probably fifteen, twenty acres maybe --

[1402]

Uh-huh. /
