Fishing gear tips
It may seem like a funny time to be talk -
Mg about fishing gear, but actually I have
three good reasons for doing so. Firstly,
baitcasting reels are making a big com-
eback, and they're nothing like the ones
grandpa used to use. They have so many
refinements nowadays, almost anyone can
become a proficient bajtcaster in about the
same time it takes to master a spinning reel.
So, since it's new, it would make a great
Christmas gift and the Shimano
Magnumlite described here would be a good
place to start looking.
The second reason for fishing gear is that
the deer season is open, and instead of doing
this column, I should be planning my
strategies and techniques for tomorrow.
The third reason? Easy! The Shimano
catalogue just arrived in the mail yester-
day, so I decided to share some of it with
you. When you look at Magnumlite, you are
looking at the most advanced casting reel
ever designed. Period. No other reel even
comes close. From its racy profile to it's
yard -long list of features, the Magnumlite
2000 GT is THE reel the fishing world will be
talking about, buying, and fishing in 1984.
Weighing an amazingly light 6.5 ounces, the
2000 GT is the only magnetic casting reel in
the world with the combination of space-age
titanium components, graphite V -spool con-
verter, Shimano Super Gears, fish saver
system, extra high-speed retrieve and
QuickFire free spool. Bantam Magnumlite
2000 GT... you'll be hearing a lot about it
this year!
A quick scan of the specifications and
review of the long list of features will con-
vince any skeptic that the Bantam
Magnurnlite 2000 GT is the ultimate bass
reel, and the world's lightest QuickFire
casting reel.
1. - Titanium/Graphite Components ..
Titanium is light and strong, dissipates heat
exceptionally well, offers outstanding abra-
sion resistance and extremely high durabili-
ty. It's ideal for use in high stress areas like
spool shafts and drag systems. And only
Shimano offers titanium/graphite in its
reels!
2. - Graphite V -Spool Converter ... A
Shimano exclusive ... like getting two reels
for the price of one. The graphite converter
snaps around the arbor of the standard high
capacity spool and actually transforms it in-
to a V -Spool. This unique feature gives the
angler the ability to snap on a V -Spool for
greater cast control and more realistic line
capacity for bass fishing, yet easily switch
to the high capacity i spool for bigger
gamefish like stripers, steelhead and salt
water species. The converter is lightweight
graphite and, because it significantly
reduces line capacity, you'll be fishing with
a lighter, easier to handle reel that offers
the spool control advantage of a V -Spool
design.
3. - Super Gears ... The gears in the 2000
GT are up to 30 percent stronger than gears
in other comparably sized bass casting
reels. That added strength translates into
more fish fighting power, less chance of
gear fatigue and smooth, precise perfor-
mance.
4. - Extra High Speed 5:1 ... The combina-
tion of Shimano Super Gears and a dynamic
5:1 gear ratio means lightning fast retrieve
with plenty of fish -fighting power.
5. - Magnetic Spool Control ... A full range,
scientifically calibrated, magnetic spool
control system gives anglers the opportuni-
ty for backlash -free fishing with a simple
turn of the dial. By simply dialing the
magnetic spool control, you instantly con-
trol acceleration for top performance under
any casting condition. The heart of this ad-
vanced system is a series of rare earth
cobalt alloy magnets set in precise align-
ment.
6. - QuickFire Free Spool ... Shimano's
unique Quickfire spool release boasts a low
profile design that is positively ingenious.
It's positioned conveniently out of the way
yet, when you use it, the thumb of your
casting hand ends up with proper pressure
on the line and in proper position on the
spool to make the cast. You don't need your
other hand to depress the button or make a
cast. At last, one handed baitcasting is a
reality thanks to the Quickfire Free Spool!
7. - Fish Saver Switch ... The fish saver (or
direct drive) switch allows the spool and
handle to back up allowing the angler to pay
line out without having to depress the spool
release. It's an ideal feature for dropping
line back to a soft striking gamefish, feeding
line out while live bait fishing or playing a
thrashing fish to the net.
8. - Precision Centered Spool ... Unique
three-point spool support keeps the spool in
perfect alignment. Special knob regulates
cast control pressure.
9. - Graphite Thumbrest ... Comfort and
control on the retrieve are important and
2000 GT offers a special graphite contoured
thumbrest that really gives you a solid grip
for added power to fight big fish, plus easy
lure handling all day long!
10. - Stainless Steel Ball Bearings
SPECIFICATIONS:
Weight - 6.5 oz.
Gear Ratio - 5:1

1. High Capacity Spool - 8/240, 12/160,

Clinton figure
skating news
The Clinton Figure Skating Club's first
Halloween skating party was a great suc-
cess with many spooks and goblins at-
tending.
The ladies who headed the committees did
a wonderful job in helping to organize the
evening for the children, not to mention the
parents who helped out and also Bonnie
Jewitt's Grade 8 students, as well as many
of the figure skaters themselves.
The fortune teller who was brought m, all
the way from Stanley Township, was a very
busy lady and was greatly appreciated.
The Skating Club feel that there was good
community effort and support.
All skaters with cheese forms, don't forget
that they must be collected and brought in
this weekend. So go out and use your
salesmanship.
Now! Latex paint over oil
with no more sanding or scraping!

CHSS fall athletic season ends
By Jackie Norman
The fall athletic season at CHSS was
wrapped up during the past week.
On Oct. 31, the Girls' Basketball teams
travelled to Goderich for their last game of'
the season. The Seniors showed much effort,
endeavour and determination throughout
the game but they were outplayed by the
first place Huron -Perth team. The Junior
girls also played with much determination
during their game against Goderich but just
couldn't come up with enough points to
defeat diem. Tlse trig tem didrii`t qualify.
for Huron -Perth playoffs.
On Oct. 26, the Senior Boys' volleyball
team, playing their best volleyball of the
season, defeated the first place team, St.
Marys, 15-13 in the first game and lost the
second game, 19-17. However, over the day's
play, its record remained at one win and
five losses. They also didn't qualify for fur-
ther play.
In the tournament held on Oct. 26, the
Junior Redmen defeated Mitchell, split with
St. Marys and lost to Listowel. They
qualified for the Huron -Perth playoff tour-
nament, that was held in Listowel on Nov. 3.
The Junior Redmen tied for fourth place
splitting their matches with Goderich,
Listowel, Stratford Central, and Stratford
Northwestern. Unfortunately, the tie
breaker was decided by a point differential
and Clinton was eliminated from further
play. In spite of the elimination, the Junior
Redmen are to be congratulated for a suc-
cessful season.
The Senior Football team was defeated in
their last game of the season against Nor-
thwestern.
All teams are to be commended for their
dedication, enthusiasm and school support.
