The Huron Expositor, 1979-04-19, Page 12112 THE HURON EXPOSITOR, APRIL 19, 1979 Naturally -speaking Better fishing Ksherrnea can, help themselYekk.• to, 'better fishing by spending a few MOMentS improving habitat each time they go out. While this is true of almost any kind of fishing, it is especially effective when: applied to brook trout streams. The typical brook trout stream in this part of the country is a small, fast, flowing, cold water .•creek. The things. :it • must provide for the trout are food, shelter and spawning beds. Natural food is difficult to. supply to trout and spawningchannels are expensive to build and maintain, but the angler can and should help the little brookies out by creating little pockets. of habitat for them. Anyone who has fished the.tiny Streams of Ontario knows that log jams invariably hold at least one nice sized speck along, with several smaller ones. These jants,are also relatively easy to build, and a half hour spent creating one on your first out ing of the year fill probably 'reward you with several fish in the pan during, the course of the season. The easiest way to build a jam is tO gather up as much falfen timber as you can find in the immediate area, keeping an eye out for an especially stout piece to use as the key log. When you find your "key"; wedge it firmly into place, either straddling the creek; or with One end firmly secured on the bank and the other in the water. This is the ntost important part of .the structure so it pays to take your time here, Keep in mind that as More material is added to the structure, more pressure is brought to bear on this particular log. It is more than a little frustrating to have a ,jani almost completed, then have it break away and go floating off downstream. Once your key leg is in place and secure, the rest of the work can begin. The next few pieces of wood should be jammed k VV.ins Spring Thiw spiel against the log with t idea of bolding back the rest of the Material, It is then a, siMple matter of adding morebranehes: and logs to the pile until the desired size •iS• reached. Invariably Some of the branches will work loose and float away on you., bgt by adding a little each time you !Nh mg mom, rou cot create an effective. and, permanent home for a large trout. In the late NI, when the water is lOw4 several log .jams on be started quite simply for the following year. This invorvb-S little more than Setting the "key"' lop in place. if the logs are set properly and, firmly. they will catch debris washed; down in the spring freshets creating instant hotspots for the coming year's fishing. The serious trout fisherman also knOwS that brook trout like te"lie in the smooth water just in front of boulders when feeding and in the slack tail eddies just behind when resting. While it's difficult to manover large boulders into position in the middle a a. stream, the same effect van be obtained by piling up more manageable size stones,at the head and tail end of riffle areas, One of the big advantages of these structures is that they are far less noticeable than log jaml =arld. can provide - some pretty exclusive fishing for the builder even on streams that rergive a. lot of heavy pressure. One of the best thingsabout strearn improvement is, that you are . very, very unlikely to get any complain ts about doing it., I personally do :not knv of any landewner who would object to an offer to "help ing.:rease the number of trout in his • stream". and that is precisely what creating habitat does. The next time you are -ant fishing, keep an eye open for areas that could stand a little improvement, You May even find yourstelf taking a half bur break from fishing, otocross starts Sun ay Motocross at Hully 'Gully opens. this Sunday.
