forests staff indicate that mr average fisherman couldnt wait until the weather got warmer beefed in some places because the fishing isnt as good as last year and in oth ers boasted it had never been better while lodges hotels and mo tels in resort areas have been and are doing good business the provincial parks of which there are now nearly 100 as compared with six a few years ago have been among the great est stimulants to the fishing- and camping business they be lieve the rush began while snow was still on the ground when 2 feminine visitors from the united states pitched their tent at a camp on the east shore of lake superior since then practically every means of transportation has been used to reach the various campsites including motorcy cles equipped with trailers its almost impossible offi cials say to prove how much fish cost per pound for one thing most fishermen couldnt care less average angler district no it wobkshop confebence canadian i cancer society mr maurice

day but most bass in ontario go less than one pound although some of course will weigh in at anywhere from two to five six or even seven pounds the man who catches a seven pound bass wouldnt mind if
