For tackle. you’H need a short, strong rod. either bam boo or steel, which esn be pur chased from any sporting goods store in this part of the country. I might amend to say that some salmon anglers use tong, limber bamboo poles by preference. You’ll need a large ocean type reel which can carry 200 'yards of strong line, such as 'Barbour's, the ’^olds standard,” or cattychunk.

These are th« gadget* that lure the fish to your nook. In fact, your hook will be dangling from the lures.

When you get that electrify ing signal from a salmon that hes on your hook, give your pole a short, sharp tug to “set” ihe hook, and then get ready for some fun. Your fish will not want to come in, and he'll fight You’ll have to reel in your line to keep it tight all the tim* After you have worked your fish up to the side of the boat don't get in too much of a hurry to land the fish, but keep him fully under your control. Have somebody else, who has had some experience landing fish, use the gaff hook or net to faring him into the boat. There's quite a trick to that. too. BARB.
