24 Thursday, January 13, 1972. The Ottawa Journal. By PHIL O'REILLY Canadian anglers showed they possets esceptiona! talent Judging from the list of award winners in the annual Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters big fish contest. There's $3,200 up for grabs in this contest with the Motion's people picking up the tab and this year's list of winners shows Canadian fisherman captured six of the top eight awards. We don't go into detail fctxxit all the winners, but we thought we might make anglers drool a bit by mentioning some ofjthe top catch-.

For the most part names and lakes aren't going to mean much to anglers in this region so we'll just give the size of the fish in most cases. For instance the winning entry in the largemouth bass category was an eight pound 2 ounce beauty. In that same category Stewart White Jr of Kingston landed one six -pounds 12 ounces and. Peter Kaemmer of Prescott took a six pound 11 ounce beauty from Bass Lake in Leeds county." The winning fish In the smallmouth bass category weighed in at eight pounds three ounces and you can Imagine what a battle that produced. Heaviest pickerel entered was a 16 pound two ounce fish.

The best in the lake tro(it class weighed 33 pounds seven ounces and one can easily visualize the tussle this lunker produced, on light line or neavyr Still in the lake trout class Gerald Lepage of 15 Stirling Avenue right here in town picked up a few dollars for his 28 pound 11 ounce fish taken from Charleston LaTce. FISH AND GAME Some exceptional catches And can vou Imacine wres- tling an eight pound 13 oun7 speckled trout on light tackle well, that was the winner In this division. The winner in the rainbow trout class was a 19 pound 10 ounce fish and looking over the list it's not surprising that most of the top rainbows came out of waters In Owen Sound area. We fished there a couple of years back and there's no doubt this is rain, bow country. The largest muskie landed last season weighed 45 pounds even that's a lot of fight.

And can you imagine flicking out a red and white lure and latching onto a 39-pound two ounce northern pike. That was the winner. And by the way that 19 pound 10 ounce rainbow set a new mark for the contest, Although we haven't received a guide yet, the On tario Department-of Lands and Forests has announced the fishing dates for this coming season. And we understand that few if any significant changes have been made according to a Canadian Press story the other day. Conservation minded individuals are -very much aware of the main sources of pollution and the resulting destruction to fish and wildlife populations.

But who would have thought that millions of fish could be killed by water spilling over a dam? SEATTLE (APJ, Nitrogen supersaturation' from water spilling over dams killed more than five million fish in Wash- Tngtbn'ltatelasfyear. The department of ecology says the so called gas bubble disease destroyed 5,011,400 game fish in 1971, upwards of 90 per cent of the spring Chinook salmon and steelhead chuck- MEN'S SHOP 259 BANK ST. 2337505 Snake Rivers. Howard Raymond of the National Marine Fisheries' Service said 50 per cent of the spring chinook and steelhead were destroyed before they could migrate downstream past the mouth of the Snake. He estimated that another 40 per cent were killed before reaching the Pacific Ocean.

The department's annual fish kill report listed 31 reported incidents in which fish were killed by various forms of pollution. Nitrogen supersaturation oc-curst when water spills over dams. The water is charged with an excessive amount of nitrogen and causes a deadly effect in fish similar to the bends experienced by man.

Frazier expects short fight with Daniels NEW ORLEANS (UPI) Heavyweight -champion Joe-Frazier, who will defend his title against unknown Terry Daniels Saturday night, said Monday he is sharper now than he was for his famous bout with Muhammad All last year. "I feel much stronger," Frazier said. "I'm working better and getting my shots off harder." He said he expected a short fight. "That's why I work hard in the gym, because I don't like to work hard the night of the fight in the ring," Frazier said.

"Our best hope is that we can come up with a couple of top-notch 20-year-olds In the amateur draft, people who will be ready to play for us Fletcher has been connected with professional hockey since 1956 when, at 21, he was named a scout for the Montreal Canadiens. After he left the Canadiens, he joined the St.

Louis Blues in 1966, 15 months before that NHL expansion team began play. Fletcher served two years as Blues' chief scout for eastern Canada before being named assistant general manager and being charged with supervision-of the Blues' farm, team and over-all scouting. He left the seven months ago during a wholesale front office change. "I've really missed being a part of professional hockey the past seven Fletcher said Wednesday, "If been my life and I was anxious to get "back A native of Canada, Fletcher, a basketball player In high school, started in hockey as" the 17-year-old coacb of an amateur team. Fletcher does not expect much from the expansion draft.

"Each of the established 14 clubs will be able to protect 15 and two goal tenders, what they now carry on their active rosters, plus all first year men," he said. "We'll hBve to do in Atlanta as we did in St. Louis.

Everything depends on timing and balance, to achieve this properly. This is where your front foot, the sliding one, goes directly behind the curling rock while your back foot, the one in the hack, gives you the necessary momentum and ths delivery is underway.
