CHAPTER XIII
HANS MUELLER'S QUEER CATCH
Lake Nasco was an irregular sheet of water, about three miles long by a quarter of a mile wide. It was not very deep, excepting at one spot near the upper end. In the center were several islands, known locally as the Cat and Kittens.
The spot the Rover boys had in mind for their camp was located near the upper shore, where a series of rocks ran out to the deep water. Here would be a good place for the sailboat, and here the fishing would be good and also the swimming.
The whole crowd took turns at rowing, and when the lake was reached Sam and Hans got out their fishing outfits and started to troll.
"I don't know if I can catch anything, but if I am successful, we can have fried fish for supper," said Sam.
"Yum! yum! that would just suit me!" cried Fred. "Fish just caught are so much better than those from the store."
