' Lake Seininq Activity Is Not Too Successful Saturday representatives of the state game commission were here to assist in the supervising of the lakes at the grounds of the Plattsmouth Rod and Gun club north of Plattsmouth. The result was disappointing to the members of the club and com mission. Seines were too small to seine the large lake and the smaller lake was too muddy to do a good job. The larger lake is 30 feet deep and will take a much large seine. It is hoped to have the work taken up at a visit of the com mission in the near future. The plans are to have all non game fish seined out of the lake and the game fish placed in the larger lake, that it is hoped will be a fine lure for the fisher men. Sunday there were a great many fishermen at the lake and fine catches of crappies were made. One of the fishermen se cured several two pound crap pies and one catch of bass is re ported. The Plattsmouth Rod and Gun club appreciates the aid of the commission, members and friends at the lakes Saturday and hope for their assistance in the forthcoming clearing up of the lakes. Tuesday evening the Rod and Gun club will meet at 8 o'clock at the 40 & 8 club and all per sons interested in Cass county are urged to attend. Members are urged to pay their current dues and visitors are welcome at the meeting and to join in this fine sport activity.
