DON’T FISH DURING | HAYS TAYLOR DIES
MARCH AND* APRIL I IN SAN ANTONIO
March and April is the
spawning time for black bass,
and the future supply of fish
in the Llanos and tributary
streams depend largely on the
protection given the larger fish
during these two months.
Many female fish will spawn
their eggs near each other, and
these eggs are guarded by the
male fish that are easily agi-
tated and will strike at any-
thing that comes near the nest.
It would be very easy to catch
all the fish that are guarding
a number of these nests in a
short time, then the eggs would
be left unprotected to be eat-
en by suckers and turtles, thus
mi one time destroying enough
eggs to supply one or more of
the large holes of water along
the river. Last fall, about six
hundred and fifty large pure-
bred black bass were turned
out above the four-mile dam.
At least fifty per cent of these
W. W. Taylor received a tele-
phone call Friday morning an-
nouncing that Hays Taylor, his
cousin, and a brother of Less
Taylor, who was accidentally
killed in Edwards County last
year, had died in a hospital in
San Antonio that morning.
Mr. Taylor lived in this coun-
ty until about fifteen years
ago, when he moved to Goliad,
where he has lived since that
time. He is well known thru-
out this country, and is a
brother-4n-law to Frank Chase,
Joe Baker. His daughters,
Hazel and Frankie, were visit-
ing at Sonora a tthe time of
their father’s death. Mr. Tay-
lor had been under treatment
%r some time at a hospital in
San Antonio, and recently took
pneumnia from which he died.
He was about forty years of
age.
