“MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM as}? Assuming that you have enough warm clothing by now. you should take a look at some of the tired old equipment you have been using. It is my ex- perience that the proper equipment will make your trip. There is just no way you will be able to Such operators 'supply everything from the warmed huts to the bait and tackle, all except the fish. I have found that more and more anglers seek out their own little fishing spot and stay well clear of the large operations, more often than’not, with excellent results. On the other hand, ice fishing can be very productive and a sport that can be enjoyed by the whole family. There are many operators who cater to the ever- increasing winter anglers. Ice fishing can be cold, lonely and often miserable, especially to those who have the wrong gear and insufficient warm clothing CENTENNIAL POOL 161 NEWKIRK ROAD 884-6651 CHRISTMAS SWIMMING PROGRAMME TUESDAY DECEMBER 27. 200 - 400 PM Public Swimming 700 - 830 PM Public Swimming WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 28 200 - 400 PM Public Swimming 700 - 830 PM Public Swimming 845 â€" 1000 PM Adult Swimming THURSDAY DECEMBER 29 ' 1200 - 130 PM Adult Swimming 200 â€" 400 PM Public Swimming 700 - 830 PM Public Swimming FRIDAY DECEMBER 30 200 - 400 PM Public Swimming 700 - 900 PM Public Swimming SATURDAY DECEMBER 31 200 - 330 PM Public Swimming 345 - 500 PM Adult and Family Swimming MONDAY JANUARY 2 200 - 400 PM Public Swimming 700 - 830 PM Public Swimming TUESDAY JANUARY 3 1200 - 130 PM Adult Swimming 400 - 530 PM Public Swimming 700 - 830 PM Public Swimming WEDNESDAY JANUARY 4 400 ~ 530 PM Public Swimming 700 ~ 830 PM Public Swimming 845 â€"1000 PM Adult Swimming THURSDAY JANUARY 5 1200 - 130 PM Adult Swimming 400 â€" 530 PM Public Swimming 700 - 830 PM Public Swimming TAXI Ice fishing cold, |one|y.... 884- 1 2 1 2 24 HOUR SERWCE RICHMOND HILL BY ALEX EBERSPAECKER TRAILBLAZERS This auger sells for about $42 in most stores Be sure the blades of the auger can be removed and try to stay with the spiral type rather than one that has a spoon-type blade. There are several ways of digging a hole in the ice. Thin ice can be easily broken with an axe or a more conventional ice chisel, but if you have ice over a foot thick a proper ice auger is a must. Whatever you do, remember never to work yourself into a sweat as you will never get warm afterwards. There is a type of auger on the market that looks like an oversized drill bit. It will cut an eight inch hole and has removable blades which can be taken off and sharpened.

There is one bright spot, however. At about March 131, 1978, the 'final value of Ontario Hydro's extra surplus, due to export sales and cost control will be known, and a special discount of 6.0% will begin to be applied to each bill we send out. Our share of this extra surplus will be returned to each customer on the basis of future usage. The end result of the process should be almost no change in average annual cost in 1978, although the January and Feb ruary bills will reflect the 5% increase, prorated for use before January 2nd. When our share of the suplus is completely refunded, the special discount will dppear. and this may happen in November and December of 1978. S. R. Greenwood, P. Eng.

The most common type of gear used in the tip-up, a little balanced stick that holds your line and sits on a stand without being held. However, I have found that such gear, when supplied by an operator. is often cheaply made and defective. Go mto a store and look at this gadget and I am certain that most of you can make one much better. Get a few feet of line and a spreader and you can use the stand from the hut.
