At least not north of the Mason-Dixo- n Line, and even south of it the soaking warmth of the summer solstice has yet to be felt in its fullest. Disregarding this, however, any fisherman worth his salt has already cleaned and repaired all his tackle and is busily laying plans for the earliest possible assault on the particular gamefish of his locale. It is not too early, the fishing authorities at Mercury outboards remind, to begin going over methods of attack that will give a measure of success on the fishing grounds. One of the most important of these is a reminder that fish are like people. Sound silly? Not so. What do you feel like doing on the first warm day of spring? You feel like sleeping late and letting the world take care of itself, then arising to a late breakfast and a slothful day spent doing as little as possible, if youre as normally lazy as most fishermen. A largemouth bass, or a nice big crappie, feels almost exactly the same way. He may not laze in bed, but hell stay in a deep hole and wait for the warming sun to heat the water to his favorite tem- perature. So you follow the sun, too. Fish the sunny side of rivers, and on lakes fish those spots where the sun has been warming the water the longest. These will be the shallow areas, which will warm up much quicker than the deep spots. Just remember to do in your fishing as you would do in your daily living and you cant miss. Linger over, your coffee, then go out and fish slowly; giving those fish with spring fever a chance to catch your lure. Ada Glad Alsop (deceased) and Barbara M. Davison of 2490 So. 6th East.
