The boys found a good location, divested themselves of most of their clothing and prepared to wade out into the stream in order to land the big ones. They had selected a pasture with a good landing to haul out the catchWithout warning a big bull suddenly burst through the brush and chased Francis Bodeson back and forth across the sand bar, much to the delight of the other boys.
