Catfish Or Cat Burglar?
Sir,—l wish to confirm your correspondent’s report regarding the presence at Lake Coleridge of a giant catfish, and also other uninvited immigrants. This fish not only makes a meal from the big fish of the depths, but will leave the lake to take fish already caught Last Easter a 4jlb brown trout which had been hung in a willow tree disappeared overnight The only conclusion that could be reached was that the fish had been devoured either by the Mississippi import, or by one of the emus blown over from Australia in a particularly high nor’-wester.—Yours, etc., NOR’-WEST. December 18, 1965.
