Natorayily Speaking
By Stege Cooke
Tackle inventory advised
The, off-season is a period of frustration
for mst fishermen, but there are projects to
help pass the time and better prepare the
angler for next season.
"The care and maintenance • of rods and
reels are extremely important, and
'fishermen should do this on a regular
basis" says John Brett, ABU -Garcia Pro
Staff adviser.
"But they also should inventory their
fishing tackle," Brett adds. "A lot of
fishermen really don't know what they have
scattered around the boat, garage or
basement. Now's the time to take a serious
look."
Once all the equipment is pulled together,
it should be logged, photographed and
itemized with a value. In case of fire or
theft, the data will help with insurance
claims. Further, a fisherman might be
amazed at his total investment in fishing
tackle.
An inventory serves other purposes as
well. Fishermen will likely discover
equipment they never use or that needs
replacement.
What do you do with tackle you no longer
use? A good idea is to give it to a neighbour
child who has expressed an interest in
!fishing. If you have broken equipment that
can be repaired, offer it to a youngster who
might fix it himself with your guidance.
Another suggestion is that fishing clubs or
conservation groups organize a tackle flea
market and donate the proceeds to a worthy
charity group or a conservation project.
A tackle inventory sometimes triggers
thoughts that occurred on the water the
season before. For example, remember the
time you were fishing with your spinning
reel and wished you had a spare spool with
lighter line? What about the squeeze bottle
of reel oil you've been missing? And
remember when you ran out of fly line
dressing?
Further investigation of the tackle box
may reveal a low supply of accessories,
such as snaps, swivels, split shot or split
rings. And what about lures? Weren't there
color patterns and style of lures that were
effective the season before? Now's the time
to stock up.
Many stores rnark down items in the off-
season, so it's a good time to get a bargain.
"The sooner the fisherman inventories his
tackle and discovers his needs, the more
time he has to resupply," Brett suggests.
"Instead of buying everything atonce, he
has time to spread out those purchases,
protecting the family budget and perhaps
landing a bargain."

ABU -Garcia has reintroduced its popular
Conolon rods in 1985 with a graphite version.
Conolon.. graphite rods feature a totally
balanced precision taper and High -Modulus
Graphite for extra sensitivity plus greater
strength. They deliver a more uniform flex
and smooth casting power from butt to tip.
The rods', offered in three actions for
casting and three for spinning, boast
Hardloy guides that reduce line friction 'and
grooving. The casting rods have the popular
Fuji reel seat and handle with a diamond
pistol grip for maximum strength and
minimum weight; spinning rods offer cork
grips. The graphite ferrules allow a one-
piece feel on two-piece rods.
The lightweight casting rods come in a
medium -light action in both five-foot, six-
inch and six-foot lengths. The spinning rods
are medium and medium -light action from
five feet, six inches to seven feet long.

afford it all," Linda Reid told committee
members. "Seventy-five per cent of these
expenses we shouldn't be encountering if we
didn't have to come up with the additional
office."
Original plans in 1984 included the,
recreation director's office in the renovated
town hall. That office is now used by the
mayor and the bylaw enforcement officer.
Councillor Jim Hunter suggested to rec
committee members, "Perhaps we can
move the recreation office from the
basement next year. Don't spend too much
money.'
Dan Colquhoun added, "We must go with
the necessities:" He added, "How can you
put an office under the library to operate a
'building two -and -a -half blocks down the
road (the arena)."
Mr. Duguay said that if his office was at
the arena, he'd "be pushing Butch. Fleet
facilities manager) out" of his office space.
Councillor Gord Gerrits reminded the rec
committee, "We have an excellent
program, we must promote this. We must
trim our budgets and prove ourselves to the
public."
Rec committee members recommended
that the town finance the office outfitting
and agreed to assess further equipment
needs in three months.
Included in the office needs are shelving,
desks and chairs,' a reception counter,
curtains and dehumidifer. The town will
carry a major portion of the costs and the
recreation committee will spend in the
neighborhood of $400 to "purchase other
office needs, including cork boards,
typewriter rental and a filing cabinet.
The recreation committee based the cost
division on the equipment that the town
would have provided for an established
office.

CLINTON - The Clinton Recreation Com-
mittee has been granted funds under the On-
tario Youth Corps Program to employ two
local youth for three month terms.
The program, which is administered by
the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation in
conjunction with the Ontario Youth
Secretariat and the Board 'of' Industrial
Leadership and Development (BILD), of-
fers jobs for youth inh4wo categories.
Clinton Recreation Director Kevin
Duguay explains the categories as being,
"1 ork related and career related. The work
related position is for a youth who has had
difficulty finding employment. For this we
(recreation committee) wanted to give the
person a legitimate job.”
The career related division is for someone
who would like to pursue one particular job.
Randy Vere, of Clinton, has been hired in
the work related position and Leanne
Thurlow, of Londesboro, has been hired to
fill the career related position.
Miss Thurlow's title is Recreation Pro-
gram Assistant and she has been working
closely with Mr. Duguay. Her job includes
basic secretarial work such as typing letters
and making posters. She also helps with
registration for events.
"For programs such as gymnastics, 'I'll
go to the high school and take down names
of people who want to register. For Trim -A -
Size or Power Skating I'll go to the arena,"
she explained.
11r. Vere helps with the posters as well as
setting up and cleaning up• for functions,
shovelling snow and assisting at the arena
whenever needed.
"I enjoy doing the work," he commented.
•In Mr. Duguay's estimation, the program
has already proven to be successful as
maintenance, operation and administration
is running very efficiently.
Randy Vere and Leanne Thurlow have been hired on a three month term as part of the
tario Youth Corps Program. Mr. Vere is working under the work related division of
the grant while Miss Thurlow is working under the career related division. ( Anne Nare-
