The second me of the series is scheduled for Lucknow this Friday at 8.34 p.rn. and the third game will be in Goderich Sunday, March 16 at 2.30 p.tn. The Sailors fought an uphill battle all afternoon here Sunday. They overcame a rash of manpower disadvantages in the second periodand scored four times in the final period to tie the game and send it into overtime. The tying goal came with one second remaining in regulation time and goaltender, Bob ynatyk on the bench in favor of an extra for- ward. But their good fortune ran out in the overtime as Lucknow scored three times in the span of a minute-. Goderich replied with a single goal late in the 10 minute overtime period but their efforts_ 'fell two goals shy. The Lancers led 2-1 after one period and clung to a 3-2 lead after two periods. Lucknow could have put the game away in the second period as they enjoyed a two- man advantage for over four minutes. The teams opened up offensively in the final period with Goderich outscoring Lucknow 4-3 to tie the game 6-6. The Lancers led 6-4 with less than six minutes remaining but Scott Parks scored at 16.27 and Paul Kelly was credited with poking in the tying goal in the final second. But Lucknow put Wm' momentum on the shelf early in the overtime pumping in three goals before it was four minutes old and boosting the . Lancers into a 9-6 Llead. Scott Parks got one goal back ...for Goderich with three minutes left in the overtime but the Sailors couldn't cofine any closer. Kelly,Parks and Don Colquhoun scored two goals each for Goderich and Dan Duncan added a single. Rick Fremlin assisted on four Sailor goals and Ron Sowerby and Graham Hamilton chipped in with three assists apiece. series in the 9-7 -▪ - ▪ March may seem like a funny month to do an article on fishing tackle, but actually it's just in time. Trout season officially opens in less than two months, and other seasons seem to follow close behind. When you start looking to your fishing gear, you may find there is more to get. ready than you. thought. The fiberglass and graphite rods of today are relatively maintenance free, but it is always a good idea to check them over anyway.: Ferrules should be examined and cleaned -'(a little bit of . grit can jam a rod up tight) and the windings on the guides examined for signs of fraying or unravelling. A bit of spar varnish or ' clear fingernail polish will generally fix these up. While you're at it, check each guide for roughness, The easiest way to do this is to run a piece of nylon stocking through each one. If there are any rough edges, the stocking will quickly show it up. Replace guides if necessary, since the slightest burr can cause the line to part when 'you're fighting a really big -one. Follow this up with a check of the reel seat and handle, and you've got your rod ready. The reel is the next area for concern. The first thing I Flo is strip off all the old line and throw it into the garbage. This forces me to buy a new spool of line before opening day and relieves me from the temptation to strike out with last year's mono still on the spool. Inspection plates are opened and the gears get a light coat of white grease, 'The friction plate (that's what varies your drag)' is cleaned and dried and all screws checked_ for tightness. The bail should be examined and checked for rough spots (the same way the guides were) and a good exterior in- spection done. Your reelcan now join the rod as "equipment ready to go". That also finishes off the easy part of the chore. The tackle box is going to turn out to be your biggest chore and worthy of every minute ,you give it. Don't plan on doing your whole 'tackle box in one evening. The best thing to do is plan on doing a bit each night over the space of several days, perhaps while watching T.V. Start out by organizing all your lures (they do tend to get mixed up during the course of a season), and just do 'a general tidy up. Badly damaged baits should be discarded and some of that stuff you've never used (and probably never will) should be sorted out and tucked: av ay in a drawer somewhere. Every hook should be examined to make sure it hasn't been bent out of shape, and the points sharpened up with a fine stone designed for the purpose. Now the so called "boring" tasks have been cleaned up; the fun time begins. You've Ole over your tackle and know what you have, so now is the time to think about those "hot lures" you lost last summer: No doubt you have some favorites that you either lost on the bottom or just plain wore out with use. If you start replacing them one or two at a time (every payday for instance), you won't be stuck with that last minute scramble before the big trip. It's also a goad idea to pick up a few extras, or something new you'd like to give a try as well. One of the most pleasant ways I've found to shop for lures is by browsing through the Mepps catalogue. The whole Mepps line is shown in this catalogue along with lots of pictures of suc- cessful fishermen with their catches. If you read the captions carefully, noting just which lure. was used in each case, you'll gain a lot of insight about which spoon or spinner you should have in your tackle box. The magazine also describes how spinners should be fished under different circumstances. The Mepp's catalogue generally sells for 75 cents, but if you drop them a line and mention my name, or this column, chances are they'll send you one for free. Address all your inquiries to Breck's Sporting Goods Co. Ltd., P.O. Box -BP 604, Sherbrooke, Quebec, J1H 5K5. If you're a fly fisherman, ask them to include their brochure on flies: If you get your gear organized now, you will not only be ready for opening day,.but you'll have a much better chance of landing that "big one" if he happens to gobble up your offering. With that in mind, I'll wish you all "tight lines" for the upcoming season. • ri ,HURON• riO •M No matter how hard they tried, the puck just wasn't - bouncing right for the Clinton Mustangs last week, .. and combined with hot goaltending by Port Elgin, the Mustangs were defeated in their bid for the league championships last weekend, after being up three games to one.
