Imaginative pen-and-ink drawing of three fisherman, Clyde (Bud) Chamberlain with his creel, Stan Hamre, who has fallen backward into the water, and Carl Vogt, balanced on one leg, have their lines tangled while a prize, oversized trout is leaping above. Trees have faces, there is a man in a boat ignoring a massive water explosion, and an open sardine can on wheels surround the scene, and in the background in the center is a framed board displaying fishing lures. Sid's authorship is on the lower edge.
