Boy, that was music to my ears.
I ran down the bank but then
. Was scared to death as he said he
didn’t care anything about the
fish, but if I lost his rod and reel
he’d throw me in the lake! Now
how many of you anglers would
allow someone else who: was a
novice to reel in your spring
salmon? The fisherman was so
helpful in showing me how to
play the fish until it turned over
on its side, and then the
miraculous event happened —
we landed the fish on shore — |
had fallen over backwards but
saved the rod and reel! When
they weighed the fish, it was 19
pounds. The fisherman wanted
to punch my card so I gave it to
him — but, alas, had the wrong
kind of license! When we bought
our license in Campbell River,
we specifically asked for what-
ever you’d need for our whole

trip — so all we had was tidal

water. The fisherman had to
give the fish to someone else

who had a license, and he felt as:

badly as I did. Naturally, we
dashed down to the little store
and bought our angler license so
we'd be legal — good thing, next

morning the game warden came

to greet us!

The people who inhabit this
bridge are truly a wonderful
asset to your city. One of the
fellows who sat next to me said
he was a ‘‘feller-puncher’’, That
had me stumped until I got up
enough nerve to ask him what
company ‘he worked for, and
when hesaid logging — then I

got the right name — feller-

buncher! He explained exactly

how it worked and even gave us
a picture of one. This conversa-

-tion then led to forest fires.and

how you combat them here. We
also found out how the logging
companies’know where to loz —
it’s on a bid basis! Someone else
informed us how ‘“‘Overwaitea’’
got its name — very unusual (if
you don’t know, ask someone
on the bridge)..So you see, even
though we didn’t catch a
beautiful superb salmon — we
found out lots about your com-
munity. — ,
One couple was from. Ger-
many, and the morning we had
to leave for Stewart he catight a
salmon, We were so pleased for
him! Another couple camped
near the bridge and were so suc-
cessful in catching salmon.

We’ll always remember the
comradery of all these people
and how hospitable they were to
us, You should be proud of your
community, We will send lots of
people from California to catch
those big springs! Thank you for

‘letting us be your guests.

Poaching
Dramatic increases in penal-
ties for poaching and other wild-
life offences, including fines of
up to $50,000 for repeat offend-
ers, were announced recently by
Environment and Parks Minis-
ter Bruce Strachan.
“The new penalties reflect the
serious damage inflicted on
wildlife and lawful recreation

when people wilfully break the.

rules,’’ Strachan said. ;

“The -recent decline in elk
herds on Vancouver Island is
one striking example of the im-
pact of large-scale poaching ac-
tivity, often for ‘substantial
monetary gain, which calis for a
much stronger deterrent than
has been applied up till now,’’
the Minister said.

Flip-flop barrier

finally at
‘Terrace council has made a
final decision on dust control for

some Walsh Ave. residents. The

history of a Walsh Ave, traffic

j control barrier was recalled by
the city’s Director of Opera-.
tions, John Colongard, and goes

something like this.

Three years ago, at the request
of homeowners living on a short
section of Walsh Ave. between
Pheasant and Thomas, the city

passed a bylaw and placed a-

traffic barrier on the west (Phea-
sant) end of the street as a form
of dust control. From every-
body’s point of view, including
public works and the fire depart-
ment, this seemed to be the most
logical location for the barrier at
the time,

However, about two years ago
Pheasant Ave. was paved and
this changed everyone’s think-

fines hiked

For convictions involving ser-
ious violations such as out-of-
season hunting, illegal sale of
game meat or. hunting threaten-
ed and endangered species,. the
new amendments to the Wildlife
Act specify fines ranging from
$200 to $10,000 for a first of-
fence and from $1,000 to
$50,000 for repeat offences. The
previous maximum was $10,000.

For other offences the max-
imum fine has been increased
from $1,000 to $5,000 for a first
offence and from $2,000 to
$10,000 for a second or subse-
quent offence.

‘In all -cases, offenders also
risk: imprisonment for. up six
months. .

on aR re

rest

ing. It made sense at the time to
move the dust control barrier to

the east (Thomas) end of the
street. so the three residents

could take advantage of the new

pavement on Pheasant. The city
amended their bylaw and the
barrier was put in place.

It seems, however, neither end
of 'the street made sense this spr-

ing and the homeowners sug-

gested that the barrier not be put
in place at all. The city agreed
with this idea because it seemed

to make sense to allow access
from either end of the street and .

so the barrier was never put in
place.

In the meantime, one piece of |

property changed hands and the

new owner decided it would be a
good idea if a traffic barrier was’:

placed on the east (Thomas) end
of the street.
However, the three home-

owners weren’t unanimous in

their thinking and all three
decided it would be a good idea
to attend a public works com-
mittee meeting to come to a con-
sensus. A vote by the three re-
sulted in one, ‘‘put it up on the

west (Pheasant) end,”’ one, .

“don’t put it up at all,’’ and
one, ‘I don’t care.’’
The city decided it was in

-everyone’s best interest to go —
along with the, “‘put it up on the .

west (Pheasant) end,’’ and re-
pealed their amendment to their
bylaw which allowed the barrier

to, be put in place on the west -

(Pheasant) end-of the street. :
Everyone now seems happy
with council’s final decision and
the tired barrier is now back
where it started out three years
ago.
May it rest in peace.
