Preparation page for Herter's Inc. Rod Book, page 253; black and white photo of a Herter child holding fish hook. Caption: "Tie a large treble hook with lead on the shank to a suitable length of wire or stout cord. When fishing from bridges, use the large weighted treble as a faff to get your hooked fish safely up to the top of the bridge. In winter fishing through ice, use the weighted treble to get hooked large fish safely up through your hole in the ice. In open water lake fishing, throw the weighted treble over hooked large fish and snag them. Works better than a gaff and reaches out much further." Number of sheets: 1
