Scope and content
In April of 1935, Bernice Majka, left, and Amelia Niemi, employees of Vandes Co., posed in front of the storefront, 115 So. 10th St., with a monster steelhead trout that really measured up. The fish was almost as long as the yardstick. The trout was taken on a 5 oz. rod by L.M. Flint of Aberdeen. The 17 1/2 pound fish fought to escape for 35 minutes.
