For weeks, my friend has been bugging us to come down and do a bit of salmon fishing with him. Actually, my wife and I need a few days holiday from the good fishing we have here in Ontario. I have fished often on Canada‘s East coast. but this trip is going to be one of those low cost ones. The lobster season has just ended there and all the lobster boats and their captains are just sitting around. waiting to take you out fishing for as low as $20.00 a day. For this price you are renting the boat, skipper. bait, and lines. Working with the tide, you must meet him at a prearranged time. and come back in about six hours later. Codfish, pollock. and haddock are common, as well as the smaller sand sharks. Usually we end up with about 400 pounds of fish for two people. On our way down east. we will try our luck on Quebec‘s Gaspe for brook trout. I have never fished there before, but I'm hoping to‘give you some interesting hints next week. I will report on this trip in two weeks or so. so then you can make a note of the places to go and the prices. 20-pound monsters In Nova Scotia, we will be fishing strictly for stripped bass in the Annapolis River. These monsters go over twenty pounds and are rumoured to be able to bite a large Rebel lure in two. I purchased a nine-foot surfâ€" casting rod for these beauties, and. combined with 3 Cardinal N0. 7 and thirty-pound test line. we shall see who wins! Next. it‘s off to some mackerel fishing in Cape Breton. and Lunenburg. Mackerel fishing is about the cheapest you can try; Fishing off the piers with regular spinning tackle and a piece of fish for bait, the cost is nil. end up with enough fish to last you for months.

Smith came on strong to take this win with excellent pitching and cat- ching by Mark Joslin and Robert Stang, along with good plays by the entire team. Hi||ers have winning way It’s the point in the season to report on an extraordinarily succe- ssful competitive tennis year for the Richmond Hill T.C. Normally this would indicate a greater number of wins and trophies gained, but in a sense this is the least important part of a highly innovative program spearheaded by President John Beck, and Club Captain Phil August. (Agreed the Majors are amongst the top teams in their class, the York- Simcoe trophy was presented to Richmond Hill at the dance-social Saturday. The Ladies League is listed second in the standings and the juniors have achieved outstanding wins in a year marred by unavoidable defaults. Yet by far the most satisfying news is that more people have played competitive tennis against com- parable opponents than it. any point of the club‘s history. richmond hill tennis club Atlantic salmon For a change of pace, we’ll try some good oldâ€"time Atlantic salmon fishing. Fly-fishing is the only method permitted, and in some areas you need a guide if you wander too far into the bush.
