New Pony Club rides in Hill A new pony club has been formed in Richmond Hill in response from residents for a qualified. accredited course of equestrian instruction. The club. to be known as the Redstone Pony Club, will operate out of the Redstone Farm stable Instead, give it a try for jumbo perch or crappies. Forget about fishing alone and take your son or daughter along. or perhaps a kid from the neighborhood. You won’t have to go far; some of the rivers running into Lake Ontario or some of the ponds in the con servation areas have plenty of sport. Forget about trout- fishing for a while Not only have most of the anglers disappeared from the streamside by then, but fishing is much better when it is a little warmer and insects are hatching. For a real outing, I suggest you head upto the shores of Lake Simcoe. The annual perch run, if there is such a thing. sees all the local kids com- peting for the most and biggest fish. No water in Southern Ontario offers better action or access to the water. I usually start my fishing near Sutton as l have found that the cast side is better than the areas around Barrie or ()rillia. Drive along the shore and you will find many places to pull off the road and cast a line There are a few piers. b'.._ll especially for the angler, it seems, that are perfect for perch.

It will attract young riders between the ages of 8 and 21 years who are interested in horses and riding. and who wish to learn the proper care and management of horses as well as to receive riding instruction. 7 Riding instruction will be under the direction of produce fish, drive along the shore to where the Talbot River enters the lake. Facing the lake, there is a long breakwall out into the water where you can park your car. I rate this spot excellent for perch out on the point. As this spot is good right into the heat of the summer, catches of carp‘ walleye returning into the lake from the Talbot river, and. in season. bass are quite common. I have found that your best perch fishing is the first four weeks after the ice has melted in the spring. PERCH BAIT Bait for perch can be had at several places along the lake. It is a toss- up as to the most ef- fective. some using worms and others swearing by little min- nows. As you dont have to fish deep for them this time of year, most troilblozeri By ALEX EBEBSPAECHER Mr. “R” Captain Demeter and all levels of competency will be in accordance with those dictated by The Canadian Pony Club. The Executive of the Redstone Pony Club consists of: Mr. David Miller, District Com- missioner: Mr.‘ David Walton. Assistant District Commissioner: Mrs. fishermen use a float for live bait. Kids should always fish with a little bobber, the action of a nibbling fish is important to keep his interest and it is a good way for him to learn when the hook must be set. Such an outfit is also easy to cast and, as you fish right off the pier or wall, no casting skill is required. You must be cautious by the Talbot River. the wall close to shore is high and straight down. Further out, large boulders are fairly sale. All other spots along the lake are quite suitable for kids. For the more ex- perienced angler, I suggest using spinning gear. Six pound line with a number two silver Mepps is a good com- bination for jumbo perch‘ Don‘t be surprised though Captain all levels of will be in with those Joan Flett.

As you fish in the middle of the perch run. there is always a chance that a few large trout are hanging around as well FAST ACTION Whatever may hit your bait. action is usually fast this time of year. You can be sure that the kids will not lose interest in the sport of fishing but. best of all, perch make some mighty fine eating in the spring. Many will be large enough to be filleted. That‘s more than you can say for the ten inch brooktrout that were probably stocked anyway.
