Benson and Cheevy? Page does not exist

[edit]

The page says that the fish were named for 'Benson and Cheevy', with a wikipedia link to a page of that name, but that page doesn't exist. The association with cigarettes makes me think it should have been Benson and Hedges, which is a well-known UK brand. But that doesn't explain the Cheevy part. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.19.144.1 (talk) 02:04, 9 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Benson (fish). Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

Multiplication problem

[edit]

Hi fellows !

At the beginning of the article I read : "Benson's popularity was such that she was caught 63 times in 13 years,"

The last sentence of Fame and fortune says : "There was a period when Benson was caught every Monday for eight years. = 52 weeks x 8 = 416 times.""

How the huge difference between 63 and 416 can be explained ? I guess the fishing season is not 52 weeks !!!

Is it possible that a qualified angler adds something like {the fishing season is X weeks} ?

Thanks in advance Graphophile (talk) 20:24, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
