It took Beacher longer than he figured to find the Colorado River. By the time he made camp, the sun was at the west back. 'Just right,' he said to himself. He cut some bank poles and found some toad frogs. 'The smaller ones work better,' Beacher thought. 'Now all I need are some hooks and line, with no weights. Just run your hook under the frog’s backbone near his hind legs, and he won’t bleed a bit. He’ll swim toward the bank all night.' Tolbert knew that the forked-tail catfish was a top feeder, unlike the round-tail, yellow catfish which fed off the bottom.

Wagons had been crossing there for years and it was a lot safer th...
