Sports Editor
I his seems to lx.* a good summer for cat
ching big fish
Last week a 32-pound trout found its way to
the dinner table and earlier this month, the
Oregon record for bluegill was broken with a
two-pounder.
A number of other anglers have reported
large steelhead in local rivers and a few big
Chinooks mingling with the eight-pounders at
the coast.
So why can’t I catch anything?
Fishing has become a sport, or pastime,
which is becoming increasingly complex. At
one tune, you could simply lean against a soft
rock, crack open a six-pack and take a snooze
while the fish fought over which of them
would get to jump your bait.
1 hat s kid stuff now. First of all, you’ve got
to have a boat. A 10-foot rowboat won’t do,
not anymore, it’s got to be something akin to
a cabin cruiser to accommodate deck par

business must have electronic fish finders,
little goodies which send sonar blips on the
screen when the boat goes over an object bet
ween the surface and the bottom
What that means is usually fish, and the
bigger the blip, the bigger the prey. Finding
the little buggers doesn’t mean they’ll bite,
though, not even with all the fancy rigging
and lures Sometimes it takes an electronic
instrument which sends vibrations through
the water to attract the fish.
All these new inventions have made a farce
out of fishing. It ’s like reading a computer to
catch a fish anymore So why can’t I catch
one?
Perhaps it’s because I still prefer the old
methods. To me. fishing is lying on the hank
or in an old. creaky rowboat, and dropping a
line in the water. A couple of sandwiches and
a cooler full of beer. Maybe a nap
Then when the fish don’t bite, it’s no big
deal It s still been an enjoyable time and you
won’t have to drive home cursing the
thousands ot dollars of wasted equipment.
boats.
At one time, 90 percent of steelhead
fishermen utilized the bank Now it’s the
other way around. There are times w hen you
can walk across the Sandy river on the boats
without getting your feet wet. Drift boats
don’t always look like much, but if a few of
the price tags were left on, the steelhead
would be obligated to jump into the boats on
their own.
DI course, lake fishing isn’t a m atter of
dropping anchor and waiting for the fish to
bite I hat takes no talent Instead, you’ve got
to deep troll, putting on about six feet of
flashing metal to make sure the fish can see
the lure. It takes at least 10-pound test to
keep your line from snapping just from the
weight of the bait.
All the fancy flashing doesn’t always work,
though; perhaps the fish are near-sighted.
That means it’s time to break out the fish
finder. The nouveau riche of the fishing
