This may sound like a bit of foolish advice, for one might say: "Who would do that? But, believe it or not, too many anglers who should know better often let their fly rods lie on the ground while they are with busy something else. It shouldnt take a great brain to figure out what may happen to a rod so neglected. Instead, the smart thing is to treat your rod with the same care youd give your watch or any other precision instrument for thats exactly what it is.

If cast upstream and allowed to swim down with the current, it looks for all the world like a caterpillar that has fallen into the stream. As the caterpillar would, it seems to struggle in the water. The art in fishing this lure is to make it mimic as far as possible the action of a real caterpillar and to see that it moves downstream along a route where a big trout may be lurking. Finding the h king place of a trout is just as necessary with the wodllyi worm as with any other fly. The best fly in the world cant produce a strike unless it comes within striking distance of a trout. And the most skillful casting cant put the fly there unless the fisherman knows where a trout should be lying. That, of course, comes under the head of reading a stream, which is something a fisherman needs to understand before he makes his cast. Given that understanding, a good fisherman can use the woolly worm to great advantage and from all indications a lot of good fishermen will this year regard the woolly worm as a must. low-grad- second-divisio- Ruth-Gehri- g HQWjoHESBi ENTRANT . . .

While these farm supplies of feed grains were larger than in all but three years on record, they were considerably smaller than on January 1 of the past two years, in total and particularly per animal unit to be fed, the report stated. Hay stocks appeared ample in most areas. Farm stocks of wheat, however, were smaller than average but slightly larger than a year ago. Soybean stocks were much larger than on any other January 1, because of the record crop. As for the wheat prospect, a relatively large acreage of winter wheat, a sixth more than average, was sown in the fall of 1950 under conditions mostly favorable to ideal for germination and early growth, the report said.

This is mostly true because of the difference in price between the two materials, with nylon being the cheaper, but also because gut leaders have to be soaked before being tied or used, whereas nylon can be used right off the coil as A mulch of straw is a good investment for home gardeners in parts of the country where summers are hot and dry.
