CN Es ay "A Family Tradition for 125 Years" PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, March 31,1992 - 11 50th Anniversary Clifford and Dorothy Johns, formerly Dorothy Hayes of Co- lumbus celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on Monday, March 30. Fish size unchanged From Page 1 how long they had been fishing this season, how many fish they had caught, how many released and any known measurements of caught fish. Lake Scugog is mainly a wall- eye fishery said Ms. Deacon and the abundancy of the pickerel was roughly the same as it has always been. Even though a lot of fisher- men this year stated they were not catching a large amount of fish, the same harvest of fish was available, just to a larger number of people, she said. The total walleye harvested was less than 1988 but more than 1984. The catch rate of fish was a lit- tle less than in the past. "The in- dividual's likelihood of catching a fish is less because there are more fishermen," Ms. Deacon told the Star. The average size of the fish caught was virtually un- changed from the 1988 average. The average length of fish in 1991-92 was 362 mm compared to 359 mmin 1988. The number of huts on Lake Scugog also increased this year tothelargest number the Minis- try has ever counted since it be- gan surveysin the mid-1970s. The average number of huts on the ice for the month of Feb- ruary was 700. The most count- ed at one time on Lake Scugog was 809. This is a large number for a lake of its size, she said. Lake Simcoe averages between 3,000-4,000 huts, eight hun- dred is a large number on a lake of Scugog's size, she said. Lake Scugog is the only lake in the. Kawarthas which allows ice huts on the lake. The fishermen who come to Lake Scugog are from a variety of places, she said. Sixty-six per cent of the fishermen were local. Local anglers include those from Victoria County, Peterbo- rough County and all of Dur- ham Region. The deadline for removal of huts from Lake Scugog was midnight, March 15 and there were only a few left on the ice af- ter that date. "That was another advantage of the officers being present on the lake on a regular basis, as they could remind peo- ple of the deadline. They knew who was fishing in what huts," she said. Other years there have been problems with fishermen burn- ing their huts, or leaving them until they fell through the ice posing potential danger to boats in the summer months. The presence of the officers also had an impact on the condi- tion the ice was left in. Officers say there was very little prob- lem with littering which has al- ways been an ongoing concern. Other charges were up alittle from other years. Ministry of Natural Resources officers laid 220 charges during the winter months. Of these charges, 125 were laid under the Ontario Fishery Regulations, which includes in- fractions such as too many lines or fishing without a legal li- cense. Seventy charges were laid un- der the Motorized Snow Vehi- cles Act for such things as riding without a helmet, insurance or license and 25 charges were laid under the Off-Road Vehicles Act. ' The Port Perry MoJacks are one step closer to the all- Ontario Junior C champion- ship. The MoJacks will meet the Stayner Siskins Saturday night for game one of the semi-finals in Stayner. The MoJacks defeated Ernes- town in back to back games on Saturday and Sunday to claim the quarter-final series four games to one. The Siskins swept their quar- ter-final series opponents, the Orangeville Crushers aside in four straight. The Siskins are riding high in post-season play. They are un- defeated in the playoffs with a record of 13-0. The Stayner Seeley & Amill Siskins swept aside Huntsville and Innisfil en route to the quar- ter-final series with Orange- ville. The loss to the Orangeville Crushers was the first handed tothe teamin four years of quar- ter-final play. Goaltender Kevin Crotty has been outstanding for the Si- skins throughout the playoffs and forwards Steve Walker and Pete Verbeek are leading their team in scoring with 11 goals each in the playoffs. The Siskins, known for sound defence and smooth skating have won the Georgian Bay Hockey League twice, but thisis the first season they have made it past the quarter-finals. he MoJacks coming off three straight victories to dispose of Ernestown are also on a high. With great goaltending by Ian Cooper in the Little Britain se- ries and Marc Dekker in the Ernestown series the semi- ~ ModJacks to meet Stayner finals should be interesting. As of Monday night at dead- line the Saturday night match- up was all that was available. Watch the Star Marketplace this Thursday for a complete schedule of the MoJack's semi- final series. See page 24 for complete de- tails of the MoJack/Ernestown weekend series. . Proposal for pet walk-a-thon Paulmac's Pet Foods and The Kinsmen Club of Port Perry are proposing to hold a pet walk-a- thon on Sunday, June 7 in Port Perry. According to a letter present- ed to council on Monday, the purpose of the event is a fund raiser for the Kinsmen Club of Port Perry. The club intends to donate half of the money to the Scugog/Uxbridge Animal Shel- ter, while the other portion will be used to fund various Kins- men projects in Port Perry. Funds will be raised in the form of pledge sheets that every walker will receive for sponsors. A five-kilometre course has been set out starting at the Port Perry Plaza, making its way to the Kinsmen Hall, up to the Royal Canadian Legion Hall, past the medical offices, once again past the Kinsmen Hall, before heading back to the pla- za. The organizers will be asking for the co-operation of the Dur- ham Regional Police, St. John Ambulance, local veterinari- ans, as well as other local groups to aid in the event. According to Peter Kneale, or- ganizer of the event, complete details of the event will be ad- vertised shortly. A letter sent to council, re- quested the township's help in the planning and execution of the event. Mayor Howard Hall was en- thusiastic when presenting the idea to council, and praised the Kinsmen Club for its ongoing ef- fortsin the community.
