HIGH HOPES OF FISHERMEN.
A Great Season Expected-Ice Supposed %
Bring Barnacies, and Boats.

A Great Season Expected-Ice supposed %
Bring ~Fish-Paints. Barnacies. ana Boats.
The salt water anglers hereabouts are already
overhnuling their tackle. The fishing season 10
approaching. In about another week paint pots
and brushes will be called out for duty. The
boats will receive their brand new oyercoats and
look their p~rettiest before going overheard.
People who have never tried it fancy that 1t 10
as easy to paint n boat as 1t is to paint a pump;
but 1t isn't. In reality, II is a tedious and trou.
blcsome Job, requiring great care and patience;
otherwise tho boat will not get tho full benent OF
the brush; and, as fishermen arc proyerbially
patient, they are the best boat painters. The
number OF nnti'fouling paints in the market 10
surprising. but, after all, not ono of them 10
strong enough to beat Off the barnacles, and in
the summer months boats that are not In con.
slant use require TO be hauled out and scrubbed
once n fortnight.
Barnacles have queer tastes. They fatten Oh
v%erdigris and feed sumptuously on anti-fouling
paints. 1t is commonly believed that the wood.
worm, the terror OF boatmcn, comes from tho
barnaclc, but this is II mistake. The WOODWORK
is in business on his own hook and has no con.
nection whatever with the barnacle. Fortu.
nately. he can be easily guarded against, for hs
goes into office only In places that are not pro.
this and consequently they paint their boats
with great care.
The sails of their boats also give the salty Low.
ers or The gentle art u great deal of trouble. A
sail that is not attended TO when the boat is 40
anchor, and dried out after a shower or ; fog, 8
sure to mildew. Indeed, IT is difficult to keep ID
stances. A good cure is believed TO exist in the
iollowlng treatment: When the new sail is PM
together, and before IL is roped, 1t should ho
soaked In salt and water for forty-cight hours;
OF course, this applies to the sails of small
boats only, for i would be difficult to lind n tank
big enough To hold the canvas OF an ordinary,
sized yacht. A barrel Ut bathtub would hold
the sail, OF a twenty-foot catbOat. Some sui..
makers have recipes for rendering sails mildcw
pro9i, Dn5 ne boatmen have little faith in them
make good sails; but as a rule they have trouble
with tho " bights. - which they are compelled 10
make on account of the width of the duck. Tho
mills turn ont the duck twice, or probably rhrc"
times too wide for the sallmaker, especially Ihn
amateur, who may be n little lazy: and thr
mil thar VIII make duck only ono foot wild" in
stead Of three will be blessed by the buatmrn.
The hopes OF the anglers for a great season
are high. According to tho reports there was
more ice on the banks this winter than in any
Tor INC last twenty years. A great deal OF ice !i
winter, the old fellows say, is sure TO be followed
by, a great many fish In summer II the ice cae
