You see, I came down with a bug. The symptoms are, I’m dreaming a lot about splashing water, tension in my wrist and forearms, and the urge to willingly wake up at an ungodly early hour out of my own desire. The only relief I have found so far has been occasional ; trips to sporting RODGERS goods stores, a few rides to Harveys Lake and Bowman’s Creek and some conversation with fellow anglers. I have been informed this bug will go away on April 12, somewhere about eight o’clock. I have also found out there are about one mil- lion other people of all ages being affected by this same trauma. If you haven’t caught it yet, you prob- ably will. It’s the dreaded “fishing bug.” As many anglers know when the weather breaks and the ice leaves the lakes, the sands in the hour- glass seem to take forever waiting for that opening day of trout season, which this year is April 13. A few comments on this might be argued by some, but I would like to relay my thoughts, being an ardent angler myself. First of all, the $12.50 price of a license. Although I do not enjoy paying this, in comparison it’s not bad. I know it outlasted what I considered my fishing jeans, a few lures and line I used, and definitely the cases of beer and soda I would take along occasionally on those lazy Sunday afternoon fishing trips. Another thing is the first day (or week rush.) This to me is no thrill. I can not see the shoulder to shoulder pushing match which seems to take place at every lake and stream in the state. I like to fish a stretch of stream or shoreline in comfort not with someone crossing my line or splash- ing through my run. That is why I usally sit it out or take a trip to the river and hope the Bass are biting (which is rare). Although some think my style is different, I like to feel that when my line hits the water, I might catch the biggest fish in the lake. Recently talking to an angler out at Harveys Lake, he made a comment which I scorned. He told me of how he caught 31, trout the first day. -How much can one person eat? I would say this is a little greedy plus it’s illegal. One more thing I do not agree on is the Fish Commission’s stocking policies, especially trout. They, in my opinion should be stocked earlier, and let the fish take better hold. I have had too many stockies just reel right in, and not even try and get away. I know the staff members of the Fish Commis- sion are a lot more educated on these matters than I am, but also I'm sure there must be a better way. After all, Pennsylvania is a trout-oriented fishing state. On a last note, I will be attending a seminar, which will be held by the Fish Commission and I will be voicing my opinions. At this time, I would be more than happy to voice yours. Maybe not each one individu- ally, but I would be happy to hear them and maybe condense them. If you wish, you can write to me: John Rodgers, c-0 The Dallas Post, P.O. Box 366, Dallas, Pa. 18612. Good fishing and may you all catch your limit and not lose any hooks.
