Winners in Molson big fish c In an unprecedented move, the administrators of the "Molson Export" Big Fish Contest have plucked the prizes from two of the top 1986 entries. Lance Males, who is in charge of the contest for the Ontar: Federation of Anglers ana Hunters (O.F.A.H.), explained, "Even before the contest judging, we. were suspicious of both the first and second- place fish in our live release musky category. "Unfortunately:.... we couldn't actually prove anything... but we finally did." A Minnesota resident original- ly claimed to have caught a muskellunge in Rainy Lake that measured 49 and three-quarter inches (126.365 cm.) in length. His entry forms stated the fish had a 30 and three-quarter-inch (78.105 cm. ) girth. This man's father entered a fish supposed to have a 48 and three-quarter-inch (123.825 cm.) length and a 30-inch (76.2) girth, Photos submitted with both entries did not seem to collabo- rate the huge size claimed for the two fish, but no proof to the con- trary could be produced despite an intense investigation by OF.A.H. staff. Failing any hard evidence when they met in mid-December, the federation's Big Fish Contest' judges and officials felt they had. no choice but to award first and second-places to these two men. Federation staff coftinued to investigate their suspicions, and were pleased to receive assistance from knowledgeable musky anglers in both the United States and Canada. Finally, during another tele- phone call from Mr. Males, one of the men admitted both he and his father must have made mistakes; their fish were not as large as claimed on their entry forms. The man agreed to return the Berkley rods and reels, and cash prizes he and his father had been awarded. The first-place prize of an Evinrude electric fishing motor had not yet been delivered. First place will now be award- ed to Robert Hruska of Mississauga, while second will go to Paul Curran of Toronto, and third to Roger Halverson, of Fergus Falls, Minnesota. Their trophy fish were caught and released in the Trent River, Georgian Bay, and Lake of the Woods, respectively. The Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters, which has operated the "Molson Export" Big Fish Contest for 28 years, is Ontario's largest provincial con- servation organization. Forced to reprint Angler interest in this year's "Molson Export" Big Fish Contest is unprecedented in the 29-year history of the competi- tion, say contest officials. Lance Males, contest adminis- trator, attributes the frenzy for entry forms to the addition of the new Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters' Grand Prize draw. "We've put together a 'fisher- man's dream' draw package worth more than $34.000. and demang for entry forms has exceeded our projections," said Males. Included in the draw package are a Dodge Dakota pick-up truck, a 15-foot Stryker bass boat and trailer, and a 70-horse- Value of these prizes exceeds $45,000. At contest's end, one special angler will be awarded the presti- gious tile of Ontario Angler of the Year, and the 9.9 h.p. ee Pretty good bikers Dan Maltais and Eric Jean, above, are this weck's winners of theTerrace Bay Police Force's bike awards. Two different elementary students will receive the awards each week until the end of August. At that time, all the weekly winners' (24 of them) names will be put into a hat and drawn for a brand new bicycle (two bikes to be won- two kids to win). power Evinrude outboard motor. Each Ontario resident (19- years of age and over) entering the contest has one chance to win the OF.A.H. Grand Prize Draw. Though just three months into the seven-month contest, one mil- lion entry forms have been dis- tributed to each sportsman, exhausting 'first printing. A sec- ond printing is underway. Operated by the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters, the "Molson Export" Big Fish Contest rewards skillful anglers in 20 classes of competi- tion. 300 of the best receive a Berkley rod and reel combination, while 60 are presented with cash prizes, and 20 take home an Evinrude electric fishing motor.
