Student-Faculty Trout Contest Closes Monday Coachman, Blue Upright Flies Best For Local Rivers Casting into its last week is the Emerald-Hendershott fish contest, open to student and fac ulty members and offering an opportunity to win a $5 fly rod. Rains of the last few days have raised the water level on the Willamette and McKenzie rivers somewhat and recent im proving weather promises ideal conditions for campus piscators during the weekend. Recommended flies for the Cascade streams are the Blue Upright and the Royal Coach man. Fly hatches have been ex pected this week and, if the flies come out in any great number, the fish will probably strike at anything offered. During hatches of dun-colored flies, fishermen have noticed that fish will sometimes strike at a bright fly like the Royal Coach man because of its contrast to the hatching flies. Another meth od is to use a fly like the Whirl ing Dun, which resembles the hatching flies. All that is necessary to enter the campus contest is to weigh in the fish at Hendershott’s. Closing date is Monday, May 19, which leaves only one more week end for Oregon’s Izaak Waltons to try and capture the elusive rainbow.
