062 - Page from Joy Camps Album with Campers Fishing | Historical Object | Wisconsin Historical Society
Page from Joy Camps photo album displaying four photographs of campers fishing. Upper left photograph is an elevated view of several campers in a boat fishing on the lake. Lower left photographs show campers on land, displaying fish caught. Right photograph is a close-up of two people in a boat on the water; young camper in foreground is taking her hook out of a fish. Original caption notes: "Perch, large and small mouth black bass, and other pan fish abound in our Lake. Our campers spend hours on end at this sport, and they love it. Fishing breakfasts add to the pleasure. And usually once a week we catch enough to feed our camp family of seventy-five, and that is not a fish-story, either!"
