The correct answer A) The word “sage” is used primarily as a joke, gently mocking the fishing guide who cannot force fish to appear or guarantee good fishing to a paying customer.

<em>The sort of tone that the author creates by using the connotative effects of the word “sage” in paragraph 6 is the following. The word “sage” is used primarily as a joke, gently mocking the fishing guide who cannot force fish to appear or guarantee good fishing to a paying customer. </em>

This so because in paragraph 6 you can read: “But the real angler continues, regardless of the local sage. He who has Heard the line sing suddenly out of his reel, and after a hard-fought hour, scooped a six-pound black bass into the landing net, weary, but still “game,” is not dismay by bad luck.”  

We are referring to an excerpt of “The Catching of Unshelled Fish”, written by Olive Green (Myrtle Reed).
