-- ea: If whitetails are your pleasure this November and Huronia District is your area to- hunt, you'd better get a move on. Applications are available for the controlled hunt held throughout Simcoe and Dufferin County. Both counties are divided into smaller sections which hunters are asked to apply for separately. Hunters can hunt only in areas allowed by their validation tag if successful in their application. Since each district has on the amount of hunters any area over that number will have a lottery to pick successful applicants. This hunt has been going on for the past few years without problems to local police or our conservation officers. It has proved to be successful from the point of view of both the Ministry 'of Natural Resources and the hunter. According to Robin Craig, Biologist for the Ministry of Natural Resources in Midhurst, last year's severe winter would have taken the lives of many more deer had it not been for the controlled hunt. Herd numbers were cut back allowing more feed during winter months for the remainder of the deer. If there had been no hunt deer mortality would have been much higher than those taken during the hunt and those which died during winter or because of it. With the additional number taken by the hunter last year added to the herd, food would have been gone much quicker, therefore causing more deaths through starvation. Also, fawns born this year would have been in very poor condition and may have died. If you are interested in this year's hunt, better get a move on. Applications have to be in the Midhurst office by Sept. 25. The ad- dress is MNR Midhurst, Ont. LOL 1X0 or phone Zenith 73000. Musky Situation Muskies have a way of making liars of everyone. Last weekend I told two old reprobates who, up until then, fished with me, that it took about 50 hours of trolling to get a muskie on a line. Wouldn't you know it -- those old muskies proved me wrong. Within three hours a 20-pounder was laying on the floor of the boat, not including the one that didn't see fit to stay and fight but took the easy way out and spit the hook. On Russell Quesnelle's first muskie ex- pedition, he came home successful. The next day word got out that I was pretty good at guiding for muskie but not too good at cat- ching them. Garnet Quesnelle thought he might like to tie into Ontario's largest game fish since it looked so easy. Sure enough, after a couple of hours off the shores of Green Island, Garnet had his muskie in the boat. They both looked at me, shrugged their shoulders and said, "'nothing toit.'"' The fact that they were using probably the hottest muskie bait to hit water did help. The Swim Whizz has boated many a muskie in Georgian Bay but on this weekend it did a super job. Colour didn't seem to matter, either. All three muskies hit on a different colour, but the action is the same. Congratulations to both men on a good job of playing in 20-pound muskies on 12-pound test line. Now, who you fishing with next week? These three were onthe ball | The team of Eileen Moreau, Helen Griffin and Ruth Rowland topped all in_ the Midland golf and Country Club's best- two-of-three-ball event - in the Ladies' Sectien competition last Tuesday. In regular play, Ruth Rowland won the day's net title with a 61, Eileen Denny and Kay Lapere were next at 68, and Eileen Moreau and Dorothy Spicer tied for third at 69.

Whoever it was, Russell and Garnet Quesnelle can both smile after taking these two _ this: muskies from Georgian Bay. They measured over 40 inches each and hit top-. the scales at better than 20 pounds. A Swim Whizz was the lure that turned the table and put plenty of meat on its And both fishermen agree on taking muskie on 12-ound Stern line offers a challenge of a lifetime.
