The setting shows a stream with an arched bridge crossing it. The man is seated at the highest point, in regulation Summer outing clothes, fishing. A “Summer girl” in fluffy frock and hat crosses the bridge just as the fisherman has “a bite.” In the excitement a “breakaway” arrangement is sprung, the bridge collapses and the rails of the bridge become a pair of parallel bars. All this occupies but a few minutes, and the pair get down to the acrobatic and gymnastic work immediately.
All the tricks are neat and smoothly executed and even in the opening place the act scored.
