Clinton News-Record, 1985-08-21, Page 15Fel v011 010 One Du Pont, the makers,of Strew fishing line, .ave t mounced a revolutionary new Pte' ' 404 10 called Primo, and is;there$ult of a 'new ,,roces which allows two materials to be extruded simultaneously. It's a line which has been engineered for low stretch and high sensitivity and could well be one of the most significant advances in the sports fishing industry in years. . ' Unlike conventional nylon monofilament fishing lines, Prime is composed of two eV- ferent. materials: a strong, low -stretch r polyester core and a flexible, durable nylon sheath. The result is a fishing line that stret- ches only half as much as a nylon monofila- ment line and offers greatly increased hooksetting speed and power. Because of its low stretch characteristics, it also is far more sensitive than conventional monofilaments. It allows the angler to feel even the slightest nibbles and strikes. "Du Pont'sr\ research in cofilament technology establishes a new category, of fishline and removes 'Prime' gftom valid comparison with any conventional monofilament on the market," said Frank Cogdell, manager of the company's "Stren" fishing line business. " 'Prime' represents a totally new category of fishing line. It is to fishing line what boron and graphite are to fishing rods and what magnetic spools and mocroprocessors are to reels." Coextrusion is a process that allows two different materials to be extruded in a single production step.., Du Pont's patented technology puts the molten polyester core precisely in the center of the molton nylon sheath with predictable accuracy. The en- tire process is computer controlled and the new product is monitored by calibrated 1laturally Speaking By Steve Cooke lasers to ensure precise core and sheath standards and the highest possible con- sistency from spool to spool: Fishing line manufacturers have long recognized that a balance of properties is essential toothe proper performance of nylon •monofilament" fishing lines. Forcing any single property to an extreme results in reduced performance of the other proper- ties. For example, by "drawing" nylon line to an. extreme degree to increase tensile strength, shock strength is compromised. Similarly, manufacturers have had difficul- ty manufacturing a line with reduced' stretch that will remain tastable. "The advanced coextrusion technology used to manufacture Prime allows us to break the stretchlcastability connection for the first tune," said Cogdell. "Our low - stretch core and tough, yet flexible sheath work together to produce a line that. has very little stretch and still handles and casts well. At the same time, `Prime' has shock strength that is as least as good as `Stren'' and can handle the strike of a big fish without breaking." New Prime cofilament allows anglers to use lower pound tests than they would with conventional monofilaments in many types of fishing, For example, a fisherman using 20 pound test monofilament can use eight pound test prime and get the same hook - setting power as with the heavier line. With the lower pound test cofilament,, the angler can enjoy low,stretch once available Only in heavier lines and .still have the castability of a light line. In addition to feeling the low stretch and high sensitivity of Prime cofilament, anglers can actually see the difference between' the new product and monofilaments. Using an ordinary magnify- ing glass, the low stretch 'core and tough outer sheath are plainly visible. The light green fluorescent color of new Prime cofilament blends well with all water conditions. It is available in all the standard Du Pont fishline package sizes: 100 -yard mini pak, 250 -yard reel -fill pak, 600 -yard maxi pak and 2400 -yard service spool. "We're excited about Prime and I think it will revolutionize the way people think about. fishing lines," said Cogdell. "For a . long time we've been saying that fishing line is the most critical link between the angler and the fish. Anyone who fishes Prime will endorse that statement."

Any person who can count and draw a spider can play this game. The object of the game is to complete the drawing first. One throw of the dice is one turn. Players must throw, in this order: 1) a six to draw the spider's body 2) a five to draw the spider's head 3) a four for each of the spiders eight legs 41•a three for each of the eight feet 5) a two for each eye 6) a one for the mouth This game can be played inside or out with any \ number of people. You can .change the game by drawing people, animals, .buildings, anything you want, instead of spiders. You can also change the game to draw very bizarre spiders: Players can throw, in any order fives, for many heads fours, for many legs i threes for many feet twos, for many eyes . ones, for many mouths If you are going to be drawing a bizarre spider, you can only throw one six for its body. There are no Winners when this variation of the game is played, just very strange drawings!
