them. Bay. To the office worker in a metropolitan city, the Great Outdoors is a bright, new fuel-efficient motor home gliding quietly around a scenic mountain road in the Blue Ridge, the Rockies or the Sierras. To another, it’s a camping trailer or pop-up tent camper parked in a serene setting, beside a quiet trout stream in Montana or Maine. Dune busting To the factory man in Los Angeles, it’s busting a Bronco across the sand dunes of Southern California or the desert of Nevada, or climbing fo undetermined heights to prospect for bits of silver and gold. To the midwest school youngster, it’s a shiny new rod and reel with stout line, hook, and bobber, and toes dangling in the water of a pretty farm pond, with an eye on a stringer of bluegill. To the southern car or in- surance salesman, it’s a fast bass or striper boat, speeding across a man-made lake dot- ted with trees and bluffs and rocky points, where big bass lurk and await the expert presentation of lures and baits. Locating fish To the charter boat captain on the Great Lakes or out of Margate or Seattle, it’s a dili- gent search with a powerful new, computerized sonar graph to locate and catch fish for his customers. To duck and goose hunters across the continent, it’s a swig of hot coffee from a stout stainless steel bottle, as a chill- ing north wind howls through the reeds of a blind and bounc- es decoys on the marshes, bays and backwaters of the land. Waterskiing To the Ozark college stu- dent, it’s waterskiing on a scenic, tree-lined Arkansas lake, expertly plying the wake of a powerful outboard mo- tor, churning white waves on a blue-green surface. To the professional or occa- sional climber, it’s a good toe- hold in a crevice while a piton is driven at arm’s length to inch just a bit higher, and to eventually reach the summit. To the Texas fireman, it’s a powerful light on his boat, to show the shoreline and safely navigate waters at night, as he fishing trip. Barbecuing To a group of senior citi- zens in Michigan, it's a patio “barbecue,” with fresh-caught coho salmon being slowly hickory, for the “meal of a lifetime.” At Indianapolis, Daytona, Riverside and Atlanta, it’s a holiday race of fast cars and fast people, following slow living and traffic jams. To most who love and ap- preciate it, it’s a quick snap- shot of others enjoying them- selves, preserving forever in film the thousands of good things the Great Outdoors has to offer. It is, after all, the finest of places to build memories. An appalling number of youngsters dash through childhood and adolescence without ever encountering a bluegill or bullhead. And, say the fishing folks at parents miss the experience of a lifetime by not witnessing a boy or girl on a fishing ad- venture. A youngster’s “first fish” is mighty important. Long after a ball game is forgotten, a bicycle discarded, this exploit in the outdoors will have sig- nificance. And the adult in- volved earns eternal respect and worship. But introducing kids to the sport may not be easy. Teaching boys and girls to fish requires personal dis- cipline by the instructor. When you strike off for the pond with youngsters in tow, leave your own gear at home. Their equipment should be simple —cane poles or closed- faced spin-casting rigs. Help. Instruct. Encourage. But don’t be too insistent. Let them make their own mistakes, then patiently ex- plain the correct approach. Start out with a bucket of minnows or can of worms. They'll produce fish for the novice quicker and easier than artificial lures. And, at this stage of the game, it’s results you want.
