hunting & Fishing Southern Oregon By MEL REES The close of the current deer season found more un used tags than had been ex pected. Areas which usually produced well in past years seemed to be barren this year. Even in the either sex season many hunters were disap pointed. This was due in part to the excellent weather prevail ing throughout the state. It takes inclement weather to drive the deer from the high er elevations and of course the very dry conditions made hunting very difficult. UNUSUAL DUCK SUCCESS The duck huntari stm le be having unuiual cue ces with many limit shoots being reported. There aren't too many geese being taken but of ducks there seems lo be a plenty. Only com plaints to date center around the duck's ability to allude the hail of lead be ing thrown into the air. It would seem that the ducks - have improved in their de fensive tactics. The Upper Klamath Marsh ha been producing l well since the opening of - the season. STEELHEADINGSPORADIC On the fishing front the steelheading is sporadic. Some boats drifting in the Grants Pass area are limiting but many of them are finding -things on the slow side. A small run was reported in the upper river and these are be ing lured via the HotShot, Moto and fly methods. Single eggs are starting to work and should produce well now. Some natives leave their lures home this time of year and 'go for small cluster eggs. If these are kept small enough with light leaders and small hooks they can be very dead ly. A light hand on the rod after the fish is hooked is a must with this type of tackle. DIFFICULT TO MASTER This type of fishing drifting with small clusters is one of the most diffi cult methods to master. It isn't a case of heaving the eggs overboard and hoping the fish will bite. It is a scientific method which will produce excellent re sults providing the eggs are drifted right and into the right place and provided the angler can feel the "pick up" when the fish takes the bait. One thing that makes this type of steelheading diffi cult is the necessity of a very light sinker. Usually this takes the form of a couple of No. 4 split shot or one cannon ball. To keep bouncing this along the bottom so one can feel each rock is difficult. If one does not feel the bottom he is either too far from it or has too much Una out and will snag up. With too much line the big fish can remove the bait with out the angler being any the wiser. The best method is to fish the bait at about a 45 degree angle downstream from the boat raising the rod tip slightly each time the bottom is contacted. This raising of the rod tip pulls the lead up from the bottom and allows it to pass over the many rocks there. Sometimesl BIG FISH NEAR BOTTOM There is a saying among expert steelheaders that if you are not losing tackle you are. not fishing! and this is certainly true for the big fish lie close to the bottom and don't care to move too far either way to pick up the bait. Next to the proper drift and equally important is to know where to drift. Steel head like to lie in the slick water at the tail end of pools just before it breaks over into the next riffle. They like to rest behind ledge rocks and alongside reefs rocks where there is a deep channel. A fairly fast moving cur rent with many large rocks in it can be a good producer but mighty hard on 'tackle. Usually they are not found in dead slack water. LIKES EGGS MOVING Inasmuch as the steelhead likes to follow the spawning salmon and pick up the eggs which wash away in the current-he likes his eggs mov ing. The eggs should move down stream just a little slow er than the current and this is the secret of the amount of lead to use. Use just enough so your bait will drift a little slower than the water being fished and you have it about right. It seems that rarely will the fish take a bait that is racing through the water. CARDINAL RULE It is a cardinal rule that in low. clear water it is best to use a longer, lighter leader while if the water is murky and cold the shorter leader is a must. When the water is low and clear the fish can see it much farther and will move out after it. while when the water is murky and visibility is low, it should be closer to his resting place. ' When the water is very cold they seem to move very little and it is necessary to get the bait right in front of them to do the work. KNOW MORE THAN FISH There is an old saying that in order to catch the fish you must know more than he does and in no fishing does this hold so true as in steel heading.

He jumped in front of Joe Moore who previously had tabulated 72-68-71-211. Entrants have been remind ed that the three rounds of 18 holes each in the tourney must be finished by Nov. 8. Players must declare them selves at the pro shop before going out on a round. Entry list totals 48. Deane Lambert with a 65- 73-141 has a chance to catch or pass Withrow with his third round.

Jeff Can Cinch At Least Tie Portland -(UPD- Jefferson high's top-ranked football team can wrap up at least a tie for the Portland prep title tonight when it plays Benson in a Halloween eve contest. The Portland teams are playing a day early this week because of the annual high school teachers' conference Friday. Other games send second place Roosevelt to Franklin, Wilson to Madison and Wash ington to play Grant at the Roosevelt field. The New York State Thru- way Authority suggests that drivers stop regularly, at least every two hours, as a safety measure. what one disgruntled angler once said, "Why is it that such a big lug of a fish has to be so delicate in his biting habits!" St. Mary's Host Friday To talent St Mary's and Talent highs wind up their District 5B football slates Friday night with a game on the Medford high field. Neither is in the running for loop honors and the con test in most respects will be just another ball game.. Tal ent, nevertheless, is after at least one victory for the sea son. Jacksonville, the only oth er Jackson county school in the district, winds up loop contention at Malin on Sat urday afternoon. Other con cluding 5B games are also on Saturday with Merrill at Chiloquin and Bonanza and Sacred Heart at Klamath Falls. Merrill is favored to finish its slate unbeaten. Jackson ville, with two losses, is out of the title picture but would like to conclude in at least third spot. Bonanza is once beaten. Lucas Starts For St. Mary's, Coach Bill McKibbin has reported that Fred Lucas has earned a starting berth at right half back. He- said that center Tom Tomjack, who missed the Malin mix last week be cause of an ankle sprain, should be ready to play. Jacksonville should be stronger in the middle with three previously ailing guards back in service. They are Gary Snider, Gail Wilson and Bob Vaughn. Also on hand again is end Leland Peters. Both Jacksonville and St. Mary's have announced addi tional games. Jacksonville will be host to Rogue River on the afternoon of Nov. 7, and the Crusaders will take on the Medford Junior varsity on the night of Nov. 8. Crater Defense Perks Up In Preparations for Pels Central Point Crater high defense, a worry to Com et Coach Leonard Warren this week, was looking "a little better" yesterday as the Central Point club kept at preparations for its trip to Klamath Falls. The Comets play Klamath Union high in Southern Ore gon conference football on Friday night. Crater seeks to wrap its District 6 A-l slate in at least third place while Klamath is set on breaking into the league win column. While the defense was still a question mark, Crater of fense functioned real well in yesterday's practice session. Status of Defensive End Darell Williamson was still uncertain. He has an injured knee. Center and linebacker Bill White was out of school because of illness yesterday but is expected to be able to play. Line-Ups Told Crater's first line offensive gang may be Tom White and Harold Twedell, ends; Doug Davis and Daye Brown,, at tackles; George Hunt and Larry Ryerson or Tom Turn er, guards; Bill White center, and Wayne Allen, Kerman Bennett, Allen Barnes and COMEBACK EYED Seattle - (UPD -Harry ('Kid') Matthews, former, heavy weight contender, announced Wednesday that was making a comeback' and would be ready to fight in the near fu ture. Matthews, who will be 36 in December, has been do ing roadwork for a month and will start working out in the gym today. He has not fought since 1956 when he notched a 10-round decision over Alvin Williams in Boise. Calhoun Given Bout Decision Rochester, N.Y. (DPD Rory Calhoun, who wants a cjack at the middleweight crown, said today his one sided victory over Franz Szuzina added little to his claim as Ray Robinson's logi cal contender. The Jieavy-punching White Plains, N. Y., boxer, showed sincerity as he sat with his head bowed in his dressing room Wednesday night. He had just pounded out a unanimous 10-round decision over Szuzina, who showed a disinclination to fight. "I know I looked bad out there" tonight," Calhoun said, "but it wasn't my fault really. I tried to make a fight of it but the German kept running away. We expected him to to come in and fight." FACES BESMANOFF New York (UPD Mike De John of Syracuse, N. Y., and Germany's Willi Besmanoff will meet in a 10-round heavy weight bout at Madison Square Garden Nov. 28. Jim Eldred or Loyal Higin- botham, backs. Defensively, it could . be among Williamson, Twedell and Tom White, ends; Hunt and Turner, tackles; Davis and Brown, guards; Bill White and Barnes, lineback ers, and Eldred, Bennett and Higinbotham tr Don Gilla spey, halfbacks. Glen Cote likely will see a lot of service in the defensive line. BOWLING LADY ELKS NO. Z Standings The Antleri , Phoenys Astors PIC's Stags Hi Lo Jolly 3 - Cussin' Three Terrible Trio ..: .
