eit EE, Rae 18 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, Jenuery 22, 1965 GAUGE AND GUN Thoughts Turn To Summer 'Fi ~ ' ishing Camp, By KEN ROBERTS Perhaps the average angler has been lulled to sleep by the activity of the hunting season and the onslaught of the cold winter months, what a shame! These are in fact months when planning trips, checking and re- pairing equipment, can turn a dull winter's night into the fire and excitement of the season to come. What are your plans for the coming season? If you're not sure, what a chance to write a few letters to prospective lodges and fishing camps. This time of the year is when they will cor- respond eagerly and more than give you the scope of their facilities. Let's not forget the choice you have in picking your own vacation time, making re- servations for when you want your holidays, For, if you leave it til summer you will take the leavings from the spring reser- vation rush, Deviating from the general, I would like to recount an inci- dent concerning the tackle box. Not the box itself or the plugs kept in it, but instead that third faction, accessories. To some, in fact most, accessories consist of a pair of pliers or a dull fishing knife. How can you possibly con- tend with every specific situa- tion that crops up with a dull knife or pair of pliers? It's im- possible. I, myself, saw the need for) more than the bare essentials on a fishing trip taken last sum- mer to northern Manitoba. WIRE CUTTERS We were out some two miles on the Cranberry chain of lakes in search of Lake Trout. It was a lovely barren day and it seem- ed to hold nothing but promise. Our faith in the possibilities of such a lovely day had more than paid off. We had in our possession three good lakers within an hour. The final trout as he was being brought over the side, put up quite a fuss in fact such a fuss that a treble Tackle, Box equipment, the morning was ruined. Had either of us bother- ed to check our tackle boxes for the wire cutters, we could have worked the hook from the hand and bound the cut. But, lacking this simple set of cul-| ters we were forced to turn back -- two miles off on the lake, and away from what promised to be a hot spot that morning. As we tended that nasty cut ashore I could not help regret the fact that we were ill equipp- ed for that mere two mile trip. It got me thinking of what else CITY COUNCIL BRIEFS Council okayed debenturing for a $149,100 storm sewer pro- gram at three Park road south locations. Two readings were given the bylaw. The city's share is estimated at $95,641. The Separate School Board, "desperately" in need of a six acre school site in the Thornton road south area, has asked council if land north of the Civie Auditorium is for sale. To the property committee, Gananoque wants to know { Oshawa is interested in trying to have new legislation (provin- cial) passed on the 'apparent nuisance of signs cluttering up municipal streets and high- ways". To the traffic commit- tee. Bylaws read last night: three readings on a city lease from the Canadian Pacific Railway should and would play a part of my tackle box make-up from) now on. | I did not come up with a con- crete list until I returned from| the trip, but now I feel I am a little better equipped for the unexpected that is so much a part of fishing.
