At such spots as Queen Anne's

Inually.
No fishing license is needed
on the D. c. side Of the Poto-
mac, but on the Virginia shore
an angler must obtain either a
Virginia license or the special
Potomac River license which
costs So.
IT like to eat catfish, too"
Fletcher said. MY wife boils
them, removes the meat, mixes
it like you would a crab cake
and fries it. Man, they're good
in the early spring before they
get real fat.
They're catching cat In the
Potomac now. I've seen fellows

Julius has 68 rowboats at
Fletcher's Cove, where legend
says Confederate spies were
ferried across the river. To the
uninitiated. the river above and
below is like any other river,
with rocks and little coveS.
To those who know, each
cove. rock or eddy has such
colorful names as Dixie Land
ing. Pumphouse Cove. Walkers
Point. Ferguson's Rock, Big
Eddy or Bush Cove. Each has
its history.
Bass in The Parlor
For instance, it was only last
fall at a spot in the river called
The Parlor, Just upstream from
Ferguson's Rock on the Vir-
ginia side, that Fletcher had
one of his most exciting fish,
ing experiences.
Julius and a companion were
using crawflsh as bait for bass
on bait casting outfits. The
water was about is feet deep
on a stone bottom.
They didn't have long to
wait. First they took a good
sized smallmouth that sulked
and lunged but finally was
boated, then another and an
other until within two hours
they had seven that weighed
from 8 pounds to 5 pounds,
II ounces.

boating circles. A director of

president OF the Washington
Association of Marine Dealers

The question: What do YOU
think of boating legislation?
His answer:
Even with the great increase
in the number of boats our
waterways still offer pleaSur-
able relief from our highways.
But, let's be realistic. At one
time our highways too were
relatively safe, because fewer
cars used them, speeds were
low and more courtesy was ex-
ercised by drivers.
To-day we have legislation
Of all kinds by every governing
body endeavoring to make
traffic safer. A large percent

Gated to the policing Of roads.
Every effort should be made by
the boat owner to avoid max
ing such measures necessary
to keep our waterways safe and
pleasant.
Congressman Bonner's COM
mittee has made an exhaustive
survey and report on boating
safety. This committee has Just
received a new version Of the
Federal Boating Act. The main
objective is to provide for q

States may adopt and admins

SKI TRAILS
BY ROBERT 3 RYAN

Seven Ski Club Of Washington
members journeyed to the Big
Boulder ski area in the Poconc
Mountains last week end to be
examined by representatives OF
the Eastern Amateur Ski Asso-
citation for certification as anna
teur instructors.
Partaking In the two-day test
were John Lake Of Washington
head of the Cabin Mountain
Ski School, and formerly in
structor at Aspen, Colo, Norma
Gentle, Ben Cocker and Jim
Hutchins, also Of Washington;
e. P. Anderson and Ron Felt
n Arlington, and the Ski
Club president. Jewell (Blanky)
Blankenship Of Vienna.
On Saturday, an intensice
five-hour course in ski instruc-
ton techniques was given by
Jerry Beadry of Philadelphia,
former instructor at Stowe, VT,
and by Bob Wright, also Of
Philadelphia, a former Aspen
(Colo.) instructor.
On Sunday, a four-and-one-
half-hour examination wa S
given. The final phase of the
test will be a written examina-
ton, to be given locally under
the supervision of Warren Gil

Fortunately, to date, the APP
proach to legislative needs has
been moderate and construc-

legislation enacted in the fu-

dependent on how the individ-
ual and collective boat owner
operates his boat and conducts
himself while boating.

IN 8 rev Gays on DoLn pankS'
Fishermen Of all ages will oc-
cupy every rock to cast snag
hooks for herring.
"Herring?" asked julius
Fletcher, owner of the boat
yard and sage of the upper
Potomac. "Oh, sure, they'll be
up the river this week end.
They're always due by mid
March and there's been a few
in the river for the last two
weeks. They come in little
punches. Pretty soon those
lunches will be bigger and the
real run will be on"
Julius, who has watched the
spring migrations of herring,
shad, white perch and rockflsh
since he was old enough to
toddle about the rowboat liv-
cry founded by his granddad,
usually is pretty accurate in
his predictions.
Expects Perch March Fl
II think the first white perch
will be along about March 81"
Fletcher went on, although
they may be a little late this
year because Of the cold water.
That ice left the river pretty
cold. you know. and it may
delay the perch unless we have
some warm rain.
I'VE caught the first shad-
white Shad, not hickories-on
April IA last year. They should
be back at the same time this
year. In the meantime we
ought to get plenty Of crappie.
They'll come up the river in
schools right after the perch.
1.-THE hickory shad ought to
arrive with the herring. They're
bigger and bony. too. But
they'll bite on a shad dart or
small spoon and give you a
fight.
1.-THE pan rockfish should be
around about the same time as
the white shad.
Pan Fry Herring
did you know that herring
will bite on a shad dart or
spoon? They do once in awhile.
MY, they have a wonderful fla
vor. Best way to cook 'em is by
dep frying 'em real crisp"
Its sad that a fish that has
such tremendous food value
should be so bony, but the her
ring has his followers. In their
spring spawning runs they are
tender and lean and at every
vantage point they are caught
in vast numbers to be eaten
fresh or salted, smoked or
frozen for later consumption.
Use of nets is illegal in the
Potomac, so fishermen resort to
the snag hook. Any fairly stiff
pole to which can be attached
