These do a good job of locating active bass and al- low you to cover lots of water. Many bass ﬁ shermen have it in their heads that topwater baits are only good when the water is warm. Believe me, they do catch bass in October. Some of the best are those that imitate a wounded ﬁ sh thrashing around on the surface of the water. The best way to ﬁ sh buzzbaits in October is to retrieve them only fast enough to keep them on the surface. On the days when cooler water tem- peratures cause bass to be less active, they won’t chase a mov- ing lure. If the bass aren’t hit- ting quick-moving baits, tie on a tube jig and make short casts to speciﬁ c areas that hold bass. Clumps of vegetation are good, as are stumps and boat docks. HIDING FROM FALL TURKEYS Most hunters think the best way to get a turkey is busting up a ﬂ ock and trying to call them back in within range. While that does work at times, hiding is an- other way to bag a bird. Flocks of turkeys often roost on hard- wood ridges near crop ﬁ elds in CONTINUED FROM PG 1B the fall. On windy mornings, look and listen for turkeys on the leeward sides of hills or in the heads of hollows. Get in the woods plen- ty early and set up between the ﬂ ock and a food source, such as acorns, a cornﬁ eld or a pasture ﬁ lled with grasshoppers. Listen for the hen’s tree yelping and clucking. A tom might even cut loose a half-hearted gobble or jakes might purr aggressively. Most importantly, listen for the sound of turkeys ﬂ ying down. A bunch of turkeys heading for breakfast might not come to your calls, but a curious tur- key or two might stray right by where you’re hidden. BEING UNORGANIZED CAN COST YOU A DEER Don’t be disorganized when that trophy deer approaches. There are thousands of acces- sory options available to hunt- ers. With all the multi-pocketed clothing, fanny packs and day- packs as well as the many acces- sories for hanging them in your blind or on your stand, it is very easy to become disorganized. Inventory your accessories be- fore you head out to hunt. As soon as you reach your Caring for your Health WE OFFER: times. Above all, ﬁ nd the bait ﬁ sh if you want to catch ﬁ sh. AMAZING FACTS ABOUT WHITE- TAILED DEER Generally, in North America the farther north you go, the bigger the deer. In 1955, a 461 pound buck was shot in Maine. In 1926 and 1981, a pair of 511 pounders was taken in Min- nesota. A white-tailed deer can sprint 40 miles per hour, jump 9 feet vertically and 29 feet horizontally. A buck’s antler is among the fastest growing tis- sues on earth, growing as much as a ¼ inch per day. One out of every 2,500 ant- lered deer taken by hunters is a doe. The antlers are typically small and some never lose their velvet. These does are usually healthy and capable of breeding. The vast majority of bucks taken by hunters are between 1-½ and 2-½ years old; as few as 5% of hunted bucks are mature bucks of 4-½ years or older. The oldest buck on record was a tame deer amed Henry II who lived almost 21 years. In the wild, a buck can reach 12 years, but very few do because of disease or predators and especially because of hunt- ers.

It is important to make sure you can get to your binoculars, rangeﬁ nder, calls and anything else you might need with as little movement as possible. Even a bow hanger in the wrong location can get in your way and cost you that tro- phy buck. FALL IS A GREAT TIME FOR FISHING As leaves begin to change colors and weather cools, the outdoor enthusiast’s attention turns to things other than ﬁ sh- ing. However, if you enjoy ﬁ sh- ing above all, fall should be your favorite time of year. There is no better time for catching ﬁ sh—especially big ﬁ sh. Not only are ﬁ sh hungry and some- times easier to catch this time of year, but in most areas the rivers and lakes are also less crowded than during the spring and sum- mer. It’s a great time to re-spool your reels with “fresh” line so you don’t lose a big one. As far as baits, bigger seems to be best because you are trying to imi- tate bait ﬁ sh which have grown bigger over summer. Fall ﬁ sh getting ready for winter want a mouthful. Pay attention to the weather and moon to make sure that you’re on the water at the best SEE FOR YOURSELF. SIGN-ON BONUSES — UP TO $7,500 — AVAILABLE IN YOUR AREA!

Though the girls only ﬁ nished fourth out of the seven compet- ing schools, there were still some notable results coming from the Lions. 3B Firstly, freshman Sabrina James ﬁ nished in sixth place out of 64 runners with a time of 22:20, a personal record.
