Streams Still Too Full for Best Angling, But Some Are Lucky It depends on who you are, or on the state of your conscience, whether you catch fish in Thomas creek these days. Some fisher men have come home from those turncoat fishing haunts with their chins dragging the ground so that if they'd worn spiked shoes they would have clawed themselves to ribbons. Others came from the same creek with creels of finny beauties that looked like a pisca torial dream and tasted like the manna of the gods. It all happened Sunday, and they haven't yet gotten their stories together for the general public it's take your choice, and say they're both fish storis any how. But in general, it seems that the Cascade streams are still too full for good fishing. This hottish weather has started, the snow 4rJfts on their, long road to the sea, and they ve filled the streams bank full. The water is some what lower than it was a week ago, but still not settled enough for regular fishing. Another week r 10 days at the most, ought to see the streams down to normal, and ready for the finest fly fish ing, say the angler students. Those who went to the Coast range Streams, are said to have had better luck. In the Big Nes tuck. the Yamhill, the Willamina and other western streams the trout are reported to have been biting fine. A few reported good catches on Thomas and ther Cas cade streams, where they found tho two-bladed spinner, baited with chub or salmon eggs, to be about the best killing bait. The fly season is coming on, so that the dainty angler is going to have the weather all on his side after the beefsteak-and-bacon solid diet of the cooler part of the year. Vacationists should he interest ed in "Vacation Hints." a maga zine booklets iarued by iKrtd an troam and Outers' Book Recrea tion. It is one of the most com plete vacation hookh ts ever -put out; covering equipment, camp ing kinks, times and places to go. afld other vacation lure tliat would almost drag a man out of a win ning poker game or a politieal argument and takehim out Into thewilds for a round with nature in a sportiv mood. Tho books axe bing distributed iree., and one ought t bo worth a farm to any good sportsmen; ho coul'i work and earn a farm in a few months of war wasm, while it would take the closest student years to learn all the njoyahlo short ruts to camping pleasure; listed tn one of thus. volumes. Fishermen will he interested in cne of the neatest little kinks ever put out for their benefit a cor undum hook sharpener that will put a needle point on a hook that has been dulled by catching on pebbles or perhaps never was quite sharp enough to catch 'em. A sharp hook is about nine out of ten points for good fishing, and a file will hardly put on the proper finish that will unfailins inaly set itself in a tough trout jaw. This new sharpener ought to do it without fail. Live Wire Class Will .
