The two Ailsa Craig boys were fishing together in the Ausable River at the edge of town when 14 year old Robbie found a giant sized Chinook salmon had taken his bait and was hooked on his 30 lb. test line. In the battle that followed Robbie found himself in the shallow water up over his boots, but he was determined this was not one that was going to get away! Mrs. Whitmore found room in her freezer for Robbie to store the prize catch. But it is not the in­ tention to cook the 41 inch fish for supperRatherRobbie hopes to be able to have it mounted as absolute proof of the event.
