PILOT GOLFERS WIN Parkland Univer sity of Portland's golf team defeated Pacific Lutheran 13V2 to 41. Wednesday. Milt Petersen of the Pilots was medalist with a 8. Mm idling & -Fishing Soiofflieim Oregon., By MEL REES The overall picture on the fishing front is-pretty good. Naturally, when all the fish ing is concentrated on just a few lakes, there are going to be a few unsuccessful anglers. There are many fishermen who do very well on the streams but are not so lucky in lake fishing and of course these anglers feel that the fish ing is terrible. In the past week I have con tacted those who said the fish ing was terrific and others who said there wasn't any, The total story may be sum med up in a statement made by the lady in charge of the Fish Lake lodge when she said, "The good fishermen have had no trouble making fine catches but then there are the other fishermen who haven't done so well!" SIZE SURPRISING Fish lake has produced many limit catches and when one remembers that the limit there is 30 fish per day. this is good fishing. The surprising thing is the iie of the fish, running mostly in the footlong class. Trolling for the most part has been fairly slow, how ever Ray Moore and party of Grants Pass took a doien fish that were over 12 inches per each by the slow troll, deep with fender and worms. The best producing meth od on both Willow Creek reservoir and Fish lake has been still fishing with single eggs or small clusters. Sev eral . limits of fish running to 14 inches have been dis played from Willow reser voir. No doubt the excessive number of boats on lhe lake has slowed the fishing somewhat. WATCH TERMINAL The fishing has. tapered off a bit but with the moon head ing into its darker phase in a week, or so, the fishing should remain pretty good. For the unlucky fisherman can only "say to watch the terminal tackle. Keep the lead ers very small. Use "small hooks and above all don't keep jiggling the bait around. Many anglers fiddle with the rod so much that It scares the fish away. Don't jerk at each lit tle nibble by the time you feel the bite the fish is long gone anyway. When the rod starts to arc is the time to set the hook and not before taken are in prime condition. Big-fish anglers can watch this column for the latest on the Upper Klamath fishing front or for a last minute accurate check call Bob Sloan, Harri man resort, Rocky Point No. 2. BOATS AT PREMIUM Boats are available at all the above mentioned lakes, however at Fish lake. Wil low Creek and Squaw they are still at a premium. Res ervations should be made well in advance. 30 POUNDER CAUGHT Salmon fishing , on the Rogue in the Grants Pass area is a little slow even at it was a week ago. This salmon fish ing in this area is always slow even at its best but for the patient one the results are very gratifying. When a fel low packs home a many pound chinook ; he has been well repaid for any number of hours of angling, believe me.' Big fish honors this week go to Mrs. Ruth Hoffman of Ga lice with a 30-pounder. Al Schmidt of Grants Pass land ed one that weighed 28 pounds. Mrs. Hoffman's fish now. holds the top spot in the salmon derby at Milo's Sport ing Goods in Grants Pass. Returning anglers from the Gold Beach area report that the salmon fishing there was very slow this past week. This can be expected to improve any day, depending on wea ther, tide and fish. Salmon reports from this area are hard to evaluate because it can be poor one day and very hot the next.

This lake was planted very heavy with good sixed fish and can be expected to hold up well during the early sea son when the water is cold. KLAMATH LAKE POOR Word comes from Bob Sloan of Harriman Lodge on upper, Klamath Lake that the fish ing there is poor. According to "Honest" Bob the fishing isn't worth making the trip. To date only, one fish in the four-pound class has been reg istered on the Big-Fish board at the lodge. Average for a day's hard angling has been about lVa fish per boat and that isn't wnat made this place famous. The lake has been lowered due to some work on the dikes and now is being raised again. This raising water on Klam ath Lake usually produces very slow fishing. Just as soon as the water reaches normal height and begins to lower again the fishing should be excellent.
