'With Monday nrnto trtin
th open an ior bear, bow,
grouse; squirrels end racoons,
where' are worn good places to go:
hunting and what kbnd of success
can hunters expects?
These wars the queries directed
toward Madison County wildlifs,
protector Raymond Ramsey, who
is one of Western North Carolina's
most knowledgeable hunters. Al
though most of Raymond's timtf
field is spent trying to keep
sportsmen honest and apprehend
those 'who cheat on the game and
fish laws, this veteran woodsman
has done a lot of mountain-type
huntinc during the past four dec
ades. He sees numerous game aw)
signs of various wildlife spedee
both in his work and his personal
hunting. Here's what he says
about the upcoming season:
"The grouse are scattered here
and there. I've seen and heard
several drumming on the ridges
and points when I've walked the
ridges this fall. I think one of the1
test areas is around Murphy in
Cherokee County. The last two
day of last season three of us
hunted along Copper Creek and
Shoal Creek near Murphy, and we
flushed aboitt 26 grouse one day
and 16 to 20 the next day. We
found birds continuously, but we1
only killed five. We had four dogs
and one time they all went on
point at 'once. ' Another time 'three
three of them were on point it
the leaves are off the trees.' It's
pretty warm this time of year for
frnuiM liuMintt -and not uoo Sttod
Sot bird dogi Ml-to batter sifter
the first frost. But the bud an
now on the potato arid ridges and
at not too high of elevations.
'If I ' was soinar bear huntiiul
and didn't hare a nlace to go. I
believe I'd hunt the Forest Serv
ice land on what we call the '12-
tnile Strip.' It's between Harmon
Den and the Smoky Mountain
Park in Haywood County. There's
lota of Dublic land and plenty ox
room for hunters. It looks good
for bear hunting this year. Ana
this area has a good many bear
moving through it. There will be
a few painty hunts with dogs in
this area, but ithere's lots of
room."
Ramsev predicted boar hunters
would have some success in the
areas which provide good hog
hiirvtftip. AmonK them is the
Santeetlah Wildlife Management
Area.
The forecast for squirrel hunt-
era is dim in Western North Car
olina. The veteran game protect
or said he has only seen one live
squirrel anjd only two dead on the
iraada this fall.
"There's a world of mast this
year, and I cant remember ever
seeing so few squirrels," he not
ed. "I've worked with a few ol
the East Tennessee game wardens
(this fall, and they say they dont
'Kara anv aouirrels. either. But
stantly.
Blber bas caught bdg catfish,
and he fan this wasn't a catfish.
He believes it was a mudde." -
If we get a fisbable muskis
population back in the French.
Broad like the oldtfaners say the
rivAi- naed to have, broken lines
and monosyllabic muttering will
be echoing through ne river val
ley in MaoHson County.
later in the season we might havfl
a few squirrels move into our
area. "I've seen this happen be
fore. It's more than likely well
bave some before the season
ends."
Ramsey, also a competent fish
erman, passed along a good bit
of fishing information.
"Friend of mine, Elbert Massey
of Madison County, brought home
the limit of eight bass the other
Hay from the French Broad Riv
er. He caught 'em on Wigglers
which you find in the leaves along
the river bank. These worms are
almost as large as nightcrawlera.
He fished a section of the river
in Madison County, and he drove
in bv Jeep. He had some nice
bass, and he said he was bringing
in a 2 or 14-inch largemouth when
something grabbed the fish and
took off like a streak and snapped
his 20-pound-test line almost in-
A LIGHT LUNCH
The thought in some after din
ner speeches wtwldnt be enough
to make a light lunch.
