Paul Thompson of New Glasgow, NS, and Dennis Ark- sey of Port Perry were both un- official particpants in the Bass tournament, with the blessing ° ofthe organizers.

Dennis was seriously in- *~ jured in a car accident last year J Cedar SN Paul Thompson (at left in boat) and Dennis Arksey of Port Perry enjoyed two days of fishing on Lake Scugog over the weekend, and their goal was not completely just to catch fish. They were hoping to encourage persons with disabilities to enjoy the sport of fishing.

But both are avid hunters and fishermen who are not go- ing tolet the cane or the wheel- chair come between them and their favourite passtime: fish- ing. With the support of the Ca- nadian Paraplegic Association and numerous corporate spon- sors, Paul is touring Ontario, Nova Scotia and New Bruns- wick this summer taking part in fish derbies to show off equip- ment that can make fishing a reality for the disabled. Dennis was his guest this past week for two days of fish- ing on Lake Scugog. And he enjoyed every min- ute of it. In fact, it was the first time he has been able to go fish- ing since this accident. Serving as role models, Paul and Dennis hope to en- courage others with disabilities to enjoy this leisure sport. "Fishing is very relaxing and there is no reason why eve- ryone should not enjoy it," said Fully Equipped (Head) CAPTAIN Larry Vernon Ft (416) 986-5272 SALMON © RAINBOW © LAKETROUT "VERNON CHARTERS" - fish aboard the "PLAYBOY" NEW 26' THOMPSON HARDTOP different point Paul as he repived the boat at the Island Marina Sunday morning. A few little innovations (such as raising or lowering seats, or using a ramp for wheel chairs) can help make fishing possible.. He also showed off a special rod holder that straps around the waist of a quadraplegic and a a battery powered reel that brings up the line for somebody without use of hands or arms. He noted that about 14 per cent of the population suffers some form of physical disability and in Ontario alone, there are 365,000 people in wheelchairs. The boat and motor used by Paul and guests like Dennis this summer were donated by Springbok, and Paul said the OV Pross Bass organizers have given the idea a great deal of support. Sport fishing, of course, is a multi-billion dollar industry in this country, and ardent sports- men like Paul Thompson and Dennis Arksey are out to prove that with a bit of specialized equipment, the sport can be opened up for those with disa- bilities. In all .this summer, Paul will be participating in a dozen OV Pro Bass derbies, and help- ing to raise public awareness every step of the way. For Dennis, it was a most enjoyable weekend on the lake. With the assistance and support of the Canadian Para- plegic Assocation, Dennis is now looking forward to resum- ing his career after completing an employment retraining pro- gram.
