Herald A Lan!<

THIS WEEK was one of the batter ones as far as February weather goes (I wrote this on Wed. and Thurs , .and it was, nice then) and it’s ahother leg along the way toward spring. The snow is falling pretty hard outside as I’m putting the final touches on this writing. But Andy Grace says we usually have nice weather after a Washington's Birthday snow storm, so I'll let that opening stay. From down South I got another note from John Osborne,’ and they've had some rough weather there that sort of cooled off their fishing. But white sailfish. catches have started to pick up the Florida angling world again, up here about the only activity is- boat shows,and coming sports expositions * Last week was the Atlantic ttty Boat Show, and this week the Philadelphia Boat Show is playing to packed crowds. I was down at Cape Island Marina Thurs., and several of the: sales crew were getting ready to head up there ’ to man their display booths. Cape Island’s shop is manufacturing a new hard top for installation on the popular center console boats, and it really looks' like a winner. You can drop plastic curtains from the windshields and the sides, to get protection from the elements. It’s the best rig I’ve seen yet for this new type boat, and it will htfndle a set of Rockaway outriggers for almost any type of sport fishing. ANOTHER BIG SHOW

World Fishing and Outdoor Exposition, and will run

from Feb 24-28.

Cortland Line Co. will be featuring a new tournament grade monofilament Une and a Record braided Nylon line made especially for record minded freshwater anglers. A lof ot new reels will be shown and the show also features clinics on Salt and

freshwater fishing.

The mails are full of shows and expositions right nowj but last week I received something different. It's a new maiHnc piece from Mapps of AntTgo, Wisconsin. They have a new catalog on their famous lures and related items for freshwater fishing. You can get this full color brochure free by writing to Sheldon's Inc., Antigo, Wisconsin, 54409, and requesting their 1982 fishing guide. It's packed with valuable information. LAST WEEK, Rev. Will Hoffman, of the First United Methodist Church of Cape May Courthouse, loaned me a book entitled Lighthouse to Leeward. I've really gotten a kick out of it. It has some of the history that’s been forgotten about the early days of the oystering Industry and

Islanders' Streak 8-0

CAPE MAY - The Islanders improved their record to 8 and 0 by sinking the Coast Guard 13-4 and the Crest Tavern 9-2 in men's hockey.

from the industry.

Rev. Will had his own oyster boat, and she was a beautiful rig. Her picture is in his study right behind his desk. He corfies from a family -ef local Oystermen and nis father is listed many limes in the book. The author. Margaret Louise Mints, has done a tremendous jOb researching the old lighthouse? thai mark the Bay ail the way up to-the Chesapeake Delaware Canal. She has some pictures in there that are .priceless. I could fill a column with her writings, but it’s better for you to get ■ copy and see for yourself. The author even has a

piece about the old glass companies, and my grandfather is mentioned, there as one of the foundersW the Hereford Glass Co. iKjook me back quite a ways Then on Friday morning"-! read where ihey’re'going to rename the old Middle .Thorofare bridge the '“Rush Chattin” bridge. I still remember Rush Chattin and the nights •my^ dad, “Chief” Farrow, and "Glth M Spalding, spent on that span working the pilings for stripers when the old Strathmere bridge didn’t produce. We may see more and more of that kind of-fishing in the days ahead as our waterways become more crowded. I ALSO NOTICE a trend developing toward do-it-yourself conservation projects Mayhf we’!! S€£ this develop full bloom as more and more government agencies feel the budget pinch. Life as we knew it here bn the Jersey Ca>e the last ten years is going to change this season, but it’s too early to tell Just how mulch.
