Mdre than 100,000 fishermen, includ­ ing a good few from Wingham and district, are expected to take to the woods on Saturday morning when the speckled trout season opens through­ put Ontario. According to the Depart­ ment of Lands and Forests, there is not a single “fishin"’ day in all the year which sees this Province’s streams, lakes and rivers more popu­ lar with anxious anglers. For the past few weeks anglers in the district have been keeping a watchful eye on the likeliest spots, attempting to gauge trout possibilities, as of May 1st. As a general rule, the first day of the season is not particul­ arly noted for good fishing, although last year several good catches were reported in the neighborhood over the first fishing week-end. Department of­ ficials figure that with travelling, ac­ commodation and other expenses, the average fisherman spends between $10 and $100 for each speckled % trout caught. The game regulations of the pro­ vince set/ the bag limit for speckled trout at “one and an additional 14 pei day, providing the additional 14 in the aggregate weigh not more than 10 pounds." With the average trout weighing considerably less than half a pound, it is seldom that opening day fishermen take their limit. Mini- mum size is seven inches, Despite the chances against coming home with a full creel, hundreds of fishermen will probably be ranging the back concessions any time from midnight Friday onwards,.. trailing along with them equipment ranging from strings and bent pins to delicate rods, reels and baits running into the hundreds of dollars. And every creek large enough to harbor a minnow will have its quota of fishermen on it. Perhaps from an economic view­ point, there isn’t much sense to it all, But opening day is opening day and the “gone fishin"* sign will be a com­ mon sight almost everywhere in Ont­ ario GOSPEL HAU Regular Sunday Services Sunday School 10.15 a.m. Remembering the Lord at 11.15 Gospel Meeting at 7.80 pan.
