The teams traded goals in the first period with Darryl Steele doing the damage for the MoJacks. Matt Harris, Nathan Cotter and Adam Mercer scored for the green and white in the middle frame, with Steele collecting a couple of assists. The MoJacks were cling- ing tenaciously to a 4-3 lead late in the game when Chief goalie Tony Demarco was yanked for the extra attacker. This time, the ploy back-fired as Ryan McQuade salted the game away with an empty netter. Netminder Garrett MacKinnon drew the lone assist on McQuade's insurance marker. Scoring for the Chiefs were Jason Clouthier, Great time By Chris Hockley Finesse Fishing What a time of year this is. The beautiful colours of fall leaves, cool nights, heavy frosts, fish moving, water temperatures plum- meting, weed growth dis- appearing. Wait a minute, this does- n't seem to sound so good after all... or does it? Sure, those weedbeds and weedlines are all using up oxygen and the sub-zero winds are making boat con- trol difficult but just think of the advantages. You don't have to fight for your fishing spots at this time of year because many anglers have put away their fishing rods and are now sporting their favourite firearms. Fish are also feeding rel- atively heavily, at certain times of the day. Covering water is a great approach for these fall fish. Trolling with crankbaits or inline spinners can be a great approach but certainly not the only one. Casting over weed flats is also a productive tech- Scott Turyk and Andrew Woods. MacKinnon went the distance in the MoJack cage and turned in a fine performance to earn the team's first vic- tory this season in Lakefield. SLAPSHOTS: The three points earned by the MoJacks last week give them 13 and keep them close to the Chiefs and within hailing distance of the first-place Bruins. And, the MoJacks are four up on fourth-place Georgina Ice. One stat the Mojacks would like to see improve is the penalty minutes as the team leads the League with 404 in 11 games. And many of those penalties have resulted in power play goals for the opposition. Head coach Neil Evans stressed at the start of the season that staying away from needless penalties would be an important factor in the team's success this year. The MojJacks have a week cf' before they rext see action Sunday (Nov. 4) at the Scugog Arena when the Georgina Ice are the opposition. As the Ice are chasing the Mojacks in the standings, and these teams have devel- oped a rivalry, this should be an entertaining game, especially if the MoJacks continue to play as they did against the Chiefs and Bruins last week. Game time is 7 p.m. The Mojacks can well use the days off as there are several players who need time to allow some bumps and bruises to heal. On Nov. 5, the MoJacks hit the road for a trip to Bobcaygeon to take on the Bullets who will be trying to stay out of the league basement. of the year for fishing nique. The best areas will contain plenty of clumped weeds over a large expanse. The weeds are dying off at this time of year, which will give you the opportunity to throw baits over them that you normally wouldn't. You may cover a kilome- ter or more with nothing to show and then catch your limit in consecutive casts. A real hot spot as of late has been the mouth of the Nonquon River. There is not much sense in moving too far up the Nonquon as fish are migrating out of the river at this time of year. Concentrate your efforts from the Port Perry Yacht Club out to the lake and all the way across to Goreski's Resort. Here's the game plan: Try beginning in the river. Troll your way out to the mouth area (where the Port Perry Yacht Club's channel buoys usually end). If you have time, do this a few times varying speed and the baits pre- sented. Casting or jigging is good if there are a good number of fish in the area or if they are very reluctant to bite. Don't be afraid to cast up shallow, as fish at this time of year could be anywhere. Your next move will be to utilize the wind. Try moving into the wind in the lake area now. Cut the engine for a while and just drift fish. A Soft Touch drift sock will be a big advan- tage now. This "water anchor" will control your drift allowing you to fish effectively even on the windiest of days. Carolina rigs, worm harnesses and jigging spoons tipped with live bait have all been working. Finally, work up to shore by casting. Sometimes in the fall these shallows are forgotten by the angler but certainly not by the fish. Speaking of shallow, there have been quite a number of decent fish caught recently off of shore. The public dock in town has been exceptionally good. I have been trying my hand at some shore fishing myself this fall. Live bait is always a plus at this time of year and seems to be the key. Fishing seems to be best after a good rain. The runoff creates fish-attract- ing currents. The pickerel will move into these extremely shallow currents. There are very few times while fishing off of shore that I have much more than eight inches of line below my float. The minnows struggle to get to the safety of the bottom and attract the attention of bass, musky, pickerel and a few bonus catfish. You never really know what you will hook into. This is the reason for a good quality hook and be sure to dress for the ele- ments. Boat safely and good fishing.
