Techstar playoff action Wednesday, Feb. 3 saw the Port Tech Stars play their first playoff game against Lindsay. It was evident from the drop of the puck that Lindsay had come to play hockey while Port seemed to be basking in the false feeling it would be a cake- walk. Lindsay scored late in period one as Port Perry had killed off a penalty. Period Two saw the stars get the goal back only to be disal- lowed by our normal home style officiating, questionable. This seemed to bring Lindsay to life and pull the surging Port team back down. Lindsay scored two more goals before Matt Hobbs finally potted a keeper as the second period ended. The third period began with a fluorish as Matt Hobbs again found mesh on a nice pass from Jon Jamieson 40 seconds into the frame. This made it close at 3-2 but with a man in the box Lindsay restored their two goal lead and the Port comeback fiz- zled. The game ended on a sour note with a flurry of bad feel- ings fed by frustration and an- ger. Hopefully the lads have learned not to take anybody lightly in the remainder of these playoff games. Port Perry Tech Stars Ban- tam "B"s on Feb. 5 travelled to Uxbridge for another play-off game in a long list of double (Period one was played safely by both teams feeling each other out. The second frame saw the Port Stars come to life with four goals.

In the first period both teams traded goals, Ports' lone mark- er was scored by Brad Morton with assist to Keyin Gray. 2ue second frame be with Lindsay going up quickly only to have Joff Jamieson tie the score 20 seconds later on a good set-up from Matt Phillips and Greg Thompson. Lindsay an- swered this with two quick goals to make the score 4 to 2. This score made for a inter- esting, fast paced third period but unfortunately no goals for Port, but some great chances only to be stoned by the Lind- say goalie. etter luck next time guys. On Friday, Feb. 12 the Ban- tam II team, sponsored by Tech Star Plastics once again trav- elled to Uxbridge to continue their playoffs. In the first frame the stars came out pressing, keeping Ux- bridge hemmed in but getting few shots on net and no goals until Matt Hobbs found mesh on a good set-up from Greg Thompson. The second period began with Port still on the offensive and Kevin Gray made it pay off with our second goal early in the frame. Uxbridge seemed to get a life but between Dylan Fergu- son and Ports' four stellar de- fensemen they again were sty- mied at each turn. ] As period three started it was obvious Port wanted more scor- ing early and Matt Phillips did Just that unassisted. Less than a minute later Kent Taylor fin- ished off a great rush with a nif- ty goal set-up by Matt Hobbs and Todd Parry. As the period wound down Uxbridge did manage to spoil Dylans' shut-out as the power play finally clicked for them. The lads are playing decent hockey at this time but will have to step it up a notch for Lindsay, "Let's Go Port!"

'Long gone 'are the days of Wine cork bobbers and bamboo les. . Never before has the fishing world been flooded by such state of the art tackle. | have never seen a rod in history that.compares to the durability, sensitivity and all round versatility of Shimano's top of the line Canis and Sienna Rods. Shimano offers 24 different lengths and actions in this high Modulus graphite rod, 12 spinning (Slenna)-and 12 baitcasting (Canis). But for a company like Shimano this was not enough so they added an innovation which enables the angler to personalize their purchase one ste p further. They accomplished this by offering these rods in a slack or tension action. The reasoning behind this concept is quite simple. Throw out the fishing business. It has always been a known fact that when using presentations such as a jig or worm pattern that causes slack in your line it is much more productive for the angler to use a rod with a long powerful butt section. This enables you to pick up the slack line in one sweeping hook set. On the other hand while using a bait such as a spinnerbait or crankbait, which cause vibration on your line, it is beneficial to use a much more whi you may feel the vibrations an through. This also enables the a less stress on the line.
