It look* as if tl)e weatherman
has Anally turned his attention to
Hunny and warm weather, at least
we hope ?? for the sake of those
fishermen that have been braving
the cold, windy and rainy weather
at the past month
fudging from the number of
people lining the banks of Lake '
Junaluaka last Saturday, the Ash
,n* fevor b** uken holt. !
The banks were lined almost
?olid, especially at the head of the i
lake, but the catches were not too
good. Mostly small carp. One
youngster told us that he and his
P?rty of three caught sixty-flve
oi these Ash, and still have not
got a large one.
Incidentally, speaking of carp,
the lake was supposed to be rid
of them, but somehow they refused
to be exterminated They are ribt
to good when it comes to eating,
but If you get a nice one on a light
rig you sure can have some fun.
The bass in Junaluaka have been
?staying pretty well out of the way
of the angler's hook, and If this
continues, next year the lake
should be good for bass Ashing
Jonathan Creek, the home of
the big brown trout, yielded one
this morning to Robert Woods of
Crabtree. Robert was Ashing with
a Ay rod at Cove Creek and tang
led with a 22 Inch 4V4 pound brown
that gave him quite a tussle. He
States that he followed the Ash
down the stream for a number
of yards before he was able to
land him. ?
Jonathan Creek produces some
nice browns during the season and
this year Is no exception and we
are looking forward to hearing
of several more before the end
of the season.
-? i ?? t I
Trout fishermen are beginning
to be more numerous in the moun
tain streams. One report comes
Jo us that It took only a short
time to get their ten Ash in the
waters above Yellowstone Falls
J?,g E*~ Fork Thls Portion
of Pigeon River has been restock
ed and also a number of native
trout have been caught.. When
wc say native, we mean the trout
that have been in the stream for
a year or so.
With warmer weather we expect
the number of trout Ashermen will
increase as Ume goes on.
Lake Ashing is also beginning
to ptok up. and rightfully so. The
? ^ !,hl8 Mctlon ?re all prac
tically full and access to your fav
orite lake has become easier. The
weather has not been too favorable
for the past month, which has beer
somewhat of a handioap.
We made a trip to Hiawassee
last week-end. Ashing a while Fri
day night and then again Satur
day morning. The results wer<
not too encouraging, but it beln>
the first trip to this TV A lake anf
not knowing the waters at all w?
attributed our poor hick to this
However, we did get three pike
two small-mouth bass and a num
of crappto, and after talktnf
1
to several other flshermen who
1 make Hiawassee their fishing
grounds, they stated that for the
past few days the fishing had been
off. This made us feel a little
better.
One thing about the trip. Hia
wassee may be several hundred
ftet lower in altitude than here
in Haywood, but, It sure did get
cold there Friday night.
Fontana continues to produce
some nice catches both In bass and
crappie. One party that fished
the lake last weekend stated that
the crappie they boated were much
larger than usual, and several
nice stringers mt i Mm re
ported. '
We have not heard from Delmas
Caldwell this year as to what he
lias been doing with the bass In
Fontana. Delmas usually manages
to get his share, but we understand
he is building a cabin near the
? lake which has taken quite a bit of
i his time away from the lake. We
i bet with the weather moderating
i you will find Delmas and Mrs.
Caldwell out plugging away. Incl
> dcntaly, Mrs. Caldwell is as good
- a flsherwoman as Delmas.
> According to stores catering to
[ sporting equipment, the sale of
I fishing rigs and accessories has
> taken a jump this year. Keep on
. trying your luck at angling. There
, is no cleaner or fascinating sport
- to be found for this time of the
t year.
