_ OUuTDooRs Whursday, February 17. 1955 * Llioyd _ Milâ€" ler of Badâ€" B en is . still w o ndering y% what _ hapâ€" MPrtssA®e pened t 0 his well laid plans to make them lay an eg¢â€" Having shot a fox, he propâ€" ped it into a lifelike position and then talked Hank into going hunting Naturally | it didn‘t take much effort to get Hank into the bush with a gun in his hand. but it did take a little stecring to have him take up the chosen position. where it was hoped, the dead fv;);rwoix'ld eventually come his attention. e Soon after he took his stand, Hank heard the hounds start to give tongue. Busy watchâ€" Ing for the hoped for fox to come along, he suddenly noâ€" ticed what he thought was a fox, sitting calmly within gun range of him.. : 20009 a Merb Smith SS im s Sen d etet Some eye strain convinced him it really was a fox. What the heck was the matter with the animal!. he wondered. The hounds were headed in this direction, ycet the fox apâ€" parently sat thoe comn‘etely oblivious to all the dog noise coming his way. The more Hank watched the fox. the more suspicious he got. Whon the dooss went roaring by just on the edge of the buch ard the fox didn‘t move, he knew there was something wrong. The dors went out of hearâ€" inc and Hark slowlv quit his watch. "See »nything?" Lloyd asked when they got together. "Nope," said Hank with A straight face. "Never saw A thing." â€" Llovd â€" is probably still wondering what went wrong. Wonder if Hank has told him yet? BITTER cold weather last weekend put a crimp in the hunting. Most hunters refused to fight a combination of deep snow, cold and strong winds, jJust for a possible shot at a Jackrabbit or fox. Sn s It‘s nearing the end of the season now anyway. ANY of you fellows who do get out hunting or just knockâ€" Ing around in the bush at this time of the year, would be doing a big thing for the game birds if you carried a little feed with you and distributed This is when most of* the wild birds die of hunger. They gan last out the cold if they dan get feed. _ Main reason pheasants have mot been successful in the morth country is not because of the intense cold or deep snow. Its simply that conditions mainly snow, prevent them from getting at any food durâ€" Ing the winter months. A pheasant like other game birds, wears lots of insulation against the cold. However, if they gannot get food, there is nothâ€" Ing to generate heat in their bodies. If you do take out lome{ food, don‘t throw it into the soft snow. Brush this away with a branch and throw the food on the hard crust underâ€" meath. You‘ll have a lot more game birds if you spend a few minutes looking after their welfare. EVER take a lake trout on s fly rod or light spinning tackle? Believe me, if you do, §s a thrill long remembered. I have a habit of harping mis type of fishing but few Ige for it usually comes at a time of year when roads are bad and there are no other seasons open. At one time or another, we have taken most of the fresh water species, but there Is no fish that gives the feeling of porwe:ut;nnflv fishing equlpâ€" ment that the laker does. ‘Taken on several hundred‘ feet of copper line and an asâ€" sortment of boat anchors for weights, the laker is not imâ€" pressive. Take him this spring en a fourâ€"ounce fly rod and Bee what you think of his fighting ability. IF WE owned a tackle store, this would be the time of y@AT we would put on our m emmi best displayt of tackle _ A couple of months rflof to epening of the season is when most men do their serious months priot to the year. It is also time they stert overhauling their tackle and deciding what they need to buy. â€" e average fisherman mMaRQ® °* purchase of tackle as he neâ€" eds them. It is when he is plenning his fishing that he goes overboard on buying. More and more women are begining to realize that their twoâ€"legged meal ticket needs more than work every day of ’the week to keep him healthy and contented. Many of them are d:nirying their change of attitude in the purchase of tackle for fricng husband‘s birthday or Christmas presâ€" ent Probably eight out of ten ‘tems wented by a man who really loves fishing tackles, are never used to any great exâ€" tent. Acquiring the variqus items and the ability to sort them over and look at them is a very large part of most fishermen‘s pleasure. ‘ ‘Tackle stores generally, do not put on a display until the trout segson is nearly open. This not only cuts their sales, but cramps the style of th‘ man who wants to come in and look at tackle a long time before he actually makes a purchase. How about it you sport store owners. You aren‘t too busy at this time of year. Why not make that tackle display while you have the time. DID YOU know that even a fish could get the gout? Mayâ€" be not as men do, but comâ€" parable and for the same reason. overindulgence in too rich foods. Some trout in Shoo Fly Lake «et a whitish substance on their heads and sides. A few have died from the affliction. Biclogists. after examining the fish, claim that an overâ€" rich diet of leeches is responsâ€" ible. Flesh of the fish does not seem to be impaired by the over indulgence. _ _ HAn A lot of comment on our svcâ€"sstion last week that a ow and arrow season be declared on deer in southern Ontario. â€" Most men indicated they would like to learn to handle a powerful hunting bow, but they also wanted some assurâ€" ance they would be able to hunt big game with it. Certainly the farmers would rows flying through . their not have to worry about arâ€" homes or killing their liveâ€" stock. An archer must get close to his game and at short range, no one is apt to mistake a cow for a deer. umg VALLEY ANTHRACITE 130 Park St. Waterloo Memorial Compliments of .. «++ Jessop & Whaley Proceeds For Waterioo Admission 25c 28 Bridgeport R&A WATERLOO T0 Klug St. 8.
