PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, September 15, 1987 -- 29 _ Port Bantams grab the York Durham crown The Canadian Tire Bantams won the York-Durham Regional finals in 4 straight games in Richmond Hill knocking out the Ontario Champion team of Stouffville on their way. Brad Bricknell pitched four ex- cellent games on the mound and was the driving force in all four games. The first game against Aurora was almost an upset against Port, with Aurora taking the lead early in the game and Port finally catching them in the 6th inning with a final score in our favour of 6 to 5. Port jumped ahead in the second game against Newmarket and held oan fav a AN win The third on marae Anglers at work The Lindsay disrict office of the Ministry of Natural Resources is currently using funds from the new provincial angling licence to rehabilitate the fast-water walleye (yellow pickerel) spawning habitant below Lock 19 in Peterborough. This is just one of the projects in the Lind- say district area that is being fund- ed by the new Ontario resident angl- ing licence. Spawning areas are be- ing improved at several other loca- tions in the Kawartha Lakes this summer and fall. Each April many of the walleye from Rice Lake migrate up the Otonabee River to Lock 19 to spawn in the clean rock rubble found on both sides of the river below the dam. Water levels normally decline in the spawning areas after initia- tion of spawning and before the eggs are hatched. This has resulted in a large loss of walleye eggs in the the tension getter against Stoufville. Port was able to pull off 2 runs in the 4th inning and held off Stouffville in a tooth and nail battle to a final score of 3-0. In the championship game, Port met Stouffville again and played a tight defensive game which kept the fans biting their nails and at the end of 7 innings, Port won 1-0. A great effort by all the team members over the year paid off in this tournament. The coaches, Wayne McCully and Rob Cooper would like to thank the guys for a good season of fastball. funds locally past. Approximately 1.4 million eggs were lost at this site in 1986, and about one half million in 1987. "Approximately $20,000 of angling licence funding is being spent to cor- rect this problem, and will un- doubtedly result in considerably higher production of yellow pickerel fry at this site," said Barry Snider, Lindsay district environmental biologist. *'We are now in the pro- cess of lowering the level of the spawning bed along the outside wall of Lock 19." The clean rocks that form the spawning bed are being set aside, and 30 centimetres of more of material is being removed. Once this work is completed, the rocks will be replaced to form a new spawning bed at a lower level. The lowered bed will remain submerg- ed during egg incubation in an estimated nine out of ten years. 0 Government of Canada training opportunities. 1986. dependent care and Canadian Rural Transition Program CRTP is a federal government program created to help farm families who, because of financial difficul- ty, must leave farming.
