Show ) Pheasant chase Saturday Pheasant hunters are going to find the good and the bad, if the weathers not ugly. Birds appear to be congregated in an erratic pattern this year and hunters probably will hit feast or famine the early part on the opener, according to John Fricke, Division of Wildlife Resources conservation officer. Fricke said more birds are around than first thought but not more than last year. After bird counts earlier this fall, I thought that bird numbers were down considerably. But birds are starting to show up and I feel there are about as many birds as last year, he said. BOX ELDER JOURNAL, Brigham City, Utah Thursday, October 30, 1975 Fricke said a lot of young birds not fully colored will be around and advised hunters to make certain they are shooting at roosters and not hens. I know we advise hunters of this time and again, but we cant stress it often enough. Be sure and ask permission from landowners before hunting on their property, Fricke said. Federal authorities at the Bear River refuge said pheasants may be hunted only in area A as posted. Pamphlets Available Hunting leaflets delineating this area are available at the refuge checking station. Hunting area B near Perry entrance is closed to pheasant hunting. Hunters should be aware that steel shot is required every day of the season. No hunting is permitted from roadways or within 100 yards of roadways. Each hunter must register at the checking station and must check out before leaving the refuge. Travel is permitted only by foot, boat or bicycle to hunting areas, official said. Not a Banner Year And last year wasnt a banner year for birds so dont expect a bumper harvest this season. Saturday until Nov. 9 is the season except of state and federal owned ground which will be open 30 days through Nov. 30.

This includes animals, insects, some plants, other fish -and many concoctions that bear little resemblance to anything theyve ever seen before. The range of baits that will catch fish is limited only by mans imagination. If a bait has an odor, whether pleasant or unpleasant, and can be placed upon a hook, it will probably appeal to some kind of fish. The angling experts at Mercury outboards have used some odd baits during their years of fishing. One of the strangest is the bloodsicle. Bloodsicles rely upon a fishs sense of smell to work. To make the bait, you should select several plugs, spinners or spoons the day before gomg fishing and wrap balls of cotton around the hooks. The cotton is then soaked in beef, chicken or pork blood. The lure is placed m the freezer overnight. Smce the bloodsicle is frozen, it thaws slowly in water and releases its scent over a period of time. This is a particularlv good bait for northern pike, muskie and walleye. man-mad- e Brad Cutler Zig Jackson , . . Eagle award .

The champs next touchdown to Colt By Mike Perry GOAL Most sportsmen and enjoyers of the outdoors who havent seen the former Deseret Land and Livestock property in northeastern Utah probably will never miss it. But for this writer who had the opportunity to see a portion of the property recently, he feel pangs of regret. The 205,000 acres of prime wildlife habitat was in the grasp of the public for more than enough time for state legislators to purchase it for a measly $10 million. A foreign interest, we understand, has purchased the property and its anyones guess what will transpire. Perhaps this great chunk of land will be subdivided with bulldozed roads and people swarming to own your own piece of Or it might turn into an exwilderness. clusive hunting club with only the wealthy seeing past the no trespassing signs. The beauty of the area, where it abuts the Wasatch National Forest south of Evanston, Wyo., is breathtaking. There arent many parcels of property with the varied and multitudious wildlife as the old Deseret Land and Livestock. Our state leaders and legislators ought to feel remorse at the very least, for letting this choice property fall into speculative hands. We may never again get another chance to preserve our vanishing wilderness heritage. Now's the time TRADE UP funma-chin- e up on a new 76 Polaris Colt.
