PG. 6, - PLAlNDfALER r FRI., APR., 12, 1968 ... ' ;i MGHS 'Varmty Baseball Team Up at the crack of dawn and off to church. Felt holier than thou and all went well until we were leaving the church and met Bart Yegge.Says he, "What happened to your Sox?" Imagine such a greeting after our Sox had lost the opener 9-0 -- and we hadn't even had our first cup of breakfast coffee to brace'up! There oughta be a law. Our next encounter was with Otto Pyritz. Right in front of our little woman, he lets us know how early he arises each morning. When we said, "Yeah -- to go fishin," ptto had to tell how he prepares the breakfast in their house. Whatta man! But, he wasn't doing our cause any good. Forgo* to tell him how we do our part by potting the fire under the tea kettle each morning. Our foreman, John and his family took off for Texas this w-aek and left us in the hands of sidekick, Dick. We'll show him how to put a sports page together. SO I HEAR By Earl Walsh Things are tough all over. Cub fans can't ride us too hard after opening day, but at least their favorites were not whitewashed. The situation is bound to improve. Boston's "Yaz" (you spell it) was said to be not so good in spring training so he up and belts two homers in tha first game when it counts. Anybody know if McHenry i? agoing to have a team in the County League this year? Wow! Fred Matthesius is bowler of the week and a lot of wueks with 218-222-243-683 in the commorcial league.

Anglers Caught About 36 Tons Of Fish Last Year In Fox Chain O'Lakes Twice Told Tales sports anglers caught about Springfield, 111., April 9 -- Anglers caught about 36 tons of fish in the major lakes of the Fox Chain O'Lakes last year according to a survey conducted from April 1 to October 31 by the Division of Fisheries, Illinois Department of Conservation. Sport fishermen were interviewed on Fox, Grass, Marie, Petite, Pistakee and Channel- Catherine on statistically selected days during the creel census period. The angler's, catch, his preference of fish, and his method of fishing were recorded. The creel clerk also noted water and air temperatures, weather and water conditions, distance the angler traveled, and other information necessary to evaluate the fishing in the region. Last winter the information gathered was analyzed by computer. Grass and Pistakee Lakes were each fished by about 16,- 000 anglers, accommodating almost half of the 76,000 fishermen who visited the Chain. About 13,300 fishermen made use of Fox Lake, 13,500 fished on Lake Marie, about 9,000 fished Channel-Catherine and close to 8,000 fifehed Petite Lake. Lake Marie was the mostproductive of the lakes from the standpoint of the rate of fish caught per hour. Boat fishermen averaged about a fish par hour of angling anid bank fishermen about a fish per two hours in this lake. The average of all the lakes creeled was a fish per \V2 hours of effort. Boat fishermen caught from two to three times as mar»y fish as the angler who fished from the bank. Fisherman took about 5tons of blugill, 62,000 of them, averaging six inches in length during the census period. This fish was the most important to the angler from the standpoint of numbers taken and made up about onefourth of the catch for all the lake si The wnite bass or striper was secortd in importance, comprising aiont one-fifth of the catch. Stripers averaged eight inches in length but the creel clerk measured some up to 11 inches long. Yellow perch were in third place and black crappie were fourth. Perch averaged 6^inches in length and crappie, 7li inches. The Chain O'Lakes has a reputation of producing fine channel catfish. Close to 8,000 catfish averaging 1% pounds were caught in the lakes creeled last year. About 3,300 largetfnouth bass averaging a pound were caught. The bigg-is: bass mrasuredduding the census was 19% inches long. Anglers took 170 walleye and 338 narthernpikeduringtlje census period. Walleyes averaged 22'4 inches long and 3 3/4 pound in weight, with the largest walleye recorded being 2V/2 inches long. The largest northern measured was a even yard long* The average northern taken weighed 2V2 pounds. Three-fourths of the fishermen interviewed claimed that they had no preference as to the fish they caught as long as they caught something. Ten percent wyre striper fishermen^ixpercent claimed to be fishing for northerns, about three p?rcent wire out after catfish, another three, percent were crappie fishermen, and two percent of the anglers interviewed stated that they were bass fishing. Natural baits accounted for 81 percent of the baits used on the lakes that were creeled. More than half of the anglers interviewed lived in Lake County.
