ORDER NOW IN TIME FOR SPRING DELIVERY - BLYTH 23.4342 SALES DEPT... • • SERVICE DEPT- ....523--9581 HURON TRACTOR EXETER235-1115 BLYTH 573-4244 By Kathy Bromley BLYTH - For anyone who is planning on going fishing and being in the water, I have some helpful advice I wish to share and pass on to you. I only wish I knew of it earlier! On April 28, I took my sons Chris, eight and Scott, six and my nephew Greg, 10, fishing in a small stream on the Base Line Road. The fish were biting and nibbling good - apparently it was going to rain. After landing numerous fish, chubs that is, Chris got his line tied up in a small shrub on the other side of the stream. I then ad- vanced through the stream to rescue it and decided to call it a night. But, when we got back to the house, Greg mentioned how his feet had been covered by blood suckers while being in the water. I • then removed my shoes and' socks and behold - I had some on me also. Greg offered to pull them off and I let him do so. ' The following morning, I woke up and felt droggy and quite dragged out. I took for granted that it was the weekend catching up with me. Although',' I noW realize that I was aware of my` inItlettrihg svirolien. ' ' On April 30, it all came to a head. One of my small toes had: broken out in a big clear blister. My ankle was hardly noticable at • this time - you could hardly distinguish it from the rest of my leg! • Figurines One of my girl friends convinced me not to let it go any further and something had to be done immediately. My neighbor then took me into the emergency ward at Clinton Public Hospital. It was here that I learned that the root of my problem was the im- proper removal of the blood suckers. By pulling them off, they literally spit poison in my blood, as opposed to sucking the blood out. It then advanced throughout my system. I was then informed that the proper way to remove them was to either sprinkle a bit of salt on them, or hold a flame up to them. I had neither on hand at the time, and had in my mind that the sooner they were pulled off my skin, the better. Apparently, once salt or fire are applied, they automatically pull back and let go of you. After the money I put out to purchase the anti -biotics to clean the poison out of my system and to clean up the bits, along with the time lost in resting and laying around from being dragged out, I came to a startl- ing conclusion. The next time I go fishing, ppovide,d willigo,,the.lineiwillebe,snipped off - the heck with going in.fotrAtUeould have, not only purchased another line, but a nice bit down on a whole new rod. Oh well, they say there is a sucker born every minute. I now know they must be even more blood suckers! Over 70 riders compete in rally.
