We arrived at the pond where 1 had decided I would fish for a few hours in the evening. While Buckshot floumdered around in the water like While loading the station wagon, I was called at least five times to the phone. In between calls I struggled out with my arms full of food, bathâ€" ing suit and beach ball for my small son, books for my wife and even manâ€" aged to get a couple of rods in the car for myself. Unfortunately, between my own deâ€" sire to get away from the telephone for a couple of hours and the prompting from Buckshot to hurry, I neglected to put in the bag of tackie which contained not onl¢y my flies and leaders, but aiso all of my reels and spinning lures. Saturday, all my best laid plans went completely and absolutely hayâ€" wire. That there are some lunkers in Paradise lake we do not doubt. And because they have aroused our curiosâ€" ity, we are going back one of these evenings and give them a going over with large dry flies Maybe this will be the answer for the big fellows we saw jufnping out of the water at a distance we couldn‘t reach. WE ARE very fond of telling other fishermen to carry all their tackle in one container so that at no time will they be caught without some importâ€" ant part of their equipment. Our emphasis has also been on having tackle stored together so that on a rush trip everything could be picked up together and nothing would be left at home. ‘ PAGE TWELVE Frankly, we think if the rock bass and the perch that were caught in this lake, were killed and thrown up on the shore, there would be excelâ€" lent bass fishing here. The fish show no sign of malnutrition, but they are not heavily built for lake fish. If the coarse fish, which are of no value anyway, could be weeded out, the bass would grow much faster and larger. There are lots of bass in Paradise lake. On about the first ten or twelve casts, we took that many bass, most of them too small to be legal, even if we had wanted to keep them. Leo was also doing a professional job with a spinning outfit, while his son Mike, caught more than either of us and included rock bass and perch in his take. While the supposed Glory Hole was only a matter of fifty feet off the end of Leo‘s dock, the fish must have all been sitting on the bottum where we couldn‘t get to them without snagâ€" ging a fly on the weeds. FOR THE FIRST time in many years we fished for bass on July Ist. It wasn‘t that we wanted to catch a bass for dinner, but Leo had intiâ€" mated there were some monsters in Paradise Lake which were hard to catch and which if tempted properly, would put up a real scrap on a fly He was right on all counts. The only trouble being, we couldn‘t get a ROLLER SKATING HUNTING George Kadwel! at the Hammond Organ AT WATERLOO ARENA 8:00â€"10:30 P.M.

Correspondent Freddy Shanks of the Waterloo Rod and Gun Club has gone on his annual salmon fishing I told her bitterly of my lack of tackle. She didn‘t laugh which was certainly in her favour. She did sugâ€" gest that I go back in the shade and have a snooze and forget about the whole thing. Today, I find that the lack of fishing tackle Saturday does not bother me at all. It won‘t happea again though. s "What is this?" she enquired, the prodigal!‘s return. I thought you were going fishing." Finally it was time for him to reâ€" turn to the water. I tiicked a couple of cushions under my wife and tried now to run back to the car. Pulling cut my fly rod, I was guddenly struck with the thought that I could not remember putting my tackle bag in the car. One thing about & station wagon, you have so much space, you don‘t have to hunt for anything. Its right there in plain view . . . only my tackle bag wasn‘t. I returned sadly to where my wife was _ sitting, . watching _ Buckshot "swim" I reached down and yanked ene of the cushions out from under her and sat down beside her. I was patient with hiri I even tried to hide my impatience from the little woman. After all, it was getting on towards evening and even at that time, the odd trout was rising, well away from the disturbance my son and several other youngsters were a two legged porpoise, the little wo man and I sat and watched, or just sat.
