Catching Trout on a Conibear

Today I heard from a friend who’s an avid trapper around Norway, Maine. She wrote me the following:

We caught a 12″ brook trout in a 220 Conibear on the brook that borders our property. We have never fished it because we knew there weren’t any trout in it! We’ve lived here 21 years!

I love looking back at first impressions.

Typos, Etc.
Anything that appears to be an error in spelling or grammar is actually the author’s clever use of the vernacular, and as such is not an error, but rather a carefully placed literary device demonstrating prodigious artistic prowess.
