THE HOPKINSVILLE KENTUCKIAN — JANUARY 03, 1907
ANOTHER FISH STORY
Abe Hindley, of Potter, while fishing, felt a light bite as he was pulling in his line. Then there was a second pull, and just as the fish was appearing on the water an enormous pike made a spring at it, and went off with his prey and 100 feet of line. After much trouble it was wound in, and the astonished angler found that he had caught first a perch of about one pound weight and well on the hook, then a pike of four pounds, which had half swallowed the perch, then a pike of 13 pounds weight, who had seized on the smaller pike in his endeavor to wrest the perch from him.
