The high cost of living has rubbed off on one of
the last sPOrts that People could participate in free of
charge for the cost of equipment,
Tlie recent announcement by the Ontario
Depart ment of Lands and Forests states that a resident
fishing licence will be required by Ontario anglers in
1969.
Up to now, Ontario residents could fish anywhere
in the province without a licence, except of course, in
Provincial Park areas.
The new regulation applies only to male anglers
over the age of 19. The fee has been set at $3 and the
amount of money received could be quite large.
Changes also affect, the licence fee to be charged
anglers from the United States and other Canadian
provinces. Beginning January 1, 1969 non resident
fishermen will pay an entire season rate of $8.50 or
$4,00 for three consecutive days of angling. The dates
of three consecutive days must be listed on the licence.
Snowmobile L icences
Owners of snowmobiles are also caught in the
licence squeeze. At the moment a great deal of
confusion exists among snowmobile owners over the
new Motorized Snow Vehicles Act.
First, all privately owned snowmobiles must be
registered, whether used for travelling on a public
thoroughfare or in the backwoods country.
Cost of registration is $4 for two years and you
will receive a Department of Transport licence plate
which must be attached to the front of your machine.
This licence does not allow you to travel on roads
under the jurisdiction of the Ontario Department of
Highways with the exception of a few provincial roads
designated for snow vehicle use. A list of designated
highways is available from the Department.
Township roads are open to snow vehicle travel,
unless closed by a municipal bylaw. Under the act, any
municipality has the authority to close any or all roads
under its jurisdiction to snow vehicle traffic.
As far as we know in this area, all township roads
may be used by snowmobiles. If travelling farther afield,
the necessary information may be obtained from
municipal offices, snowmobile clubs or dealers.
Confusion also surrounds the highway licence
plates issued for highway travel last season. Many
snowmobile owners are under the impression these
licence plates are valid for highway travel until the end
of February, 1969. This is not so.
The director of the Vehicle Branch, Department
of Transport has confirmed that these plates are no
longer valid. When the plates were issued, snow vehicles
were defined as motor vehicles under the Ontario
Traffic Act and it was permissible to licence them for
highway travel.
This has changed, snowmobiles are now covered
only by the Motorized Snow Vehicles Act. If you have a
highway licence plate from last year it should be turned
into the licencing office when the new registration is
made.
Although this may not have too much application
in this area, we would like to pass on a warning from the
Department of Transport regarding snowmobile travel
on ice of lakes and rivers.
"A safe thickness of ice is four inches. The
thicker the better ", says the communique.
It should be remembered at this time of year, ice
may appear to be reasonably safe close to shore, but a
few feet out it is most dangerous. A frozen lake with a
light covering of snow is tempting to snowmobile, but
the ice in most regions is not yet safe for travel.
It is thought by some that ice, too weak to walk
on is safe for snowmobile travel because of the speed on
which a machine can skim over the ice. This may be
true, but what a risk to take. Suppose the engine stalls
or some other mechanical failure causes the machine to
slow down.
The majority of snowmobile fatalities have been
drownings, resulting from machines breaking through
thin or rotten ice.
Let's have fun this winter, but be careful on ice
and on township roads. Later on in the winter when
snow banks along the sides of roads in this area are high,
motorists approaching an intersection will be unable to
see a snowmobile coming along.
BACKPATCHES
In September 1968, the Department of Lands and
Forests initiated the use of a numbered Backpatch with
the Iesident Hunting. Licence for small game.
The backpatch, 71/4 " x 31/2 " in size, with black
numbers on a yellow background is to be worn in a
conspicuous place on the back of the hunter. Wearing
the backpatch on a cap is not acceptable.
There are several "plastic pouches" on the market
that may be purchased to carry the backpatch, but these
plastic holders still have to be pinned on to the shirt,
jacket or coat that the hunter is wearing.
The most sensible and practical way to wear the
backpatch is to sew the backpatch in a piece of plastic
on a light, full fitting vest. These vests, available at
nominal prices, should be blazed orange, yellow or red
in colour for an added safety feature. The full fitting
feature of the vest allows it to be worn over heavy
hunting clothing in the cold weather and still may be
worn comfortably in "shirt sleeve" weather in the early
fall.
Merely pinning the backpatch to the clothing will
only result in the loss of the backpatch when the pins
and patch catch on trees and brush, A new licence must
then be obtained at any Lands and Forests Office for
the price of 25 tents,
The purpose of the backpatch is to enable
landowners, farmers, hunters and citizens to identify
hunters who are trespassing, misbehaving or violating
Game Laws. Already, several hunters who have acted in
an unsportsmanlike manner have been brought to
Justice through identification by means of the
backpatch.
Hunters are ,reminded that Section 34(8) of the
Gatne and Fish Act makes it compulsory for hunters to
wear the backpatches. A four month "warning period",
September to the end of December 1968, is in progress,
but effective January 1, 1969, charges will be laid
against hunters who ate not wearing their backpatches
in the, proper manner.
