Two Individual records were

AFIELD
I'm Maryland

Recently at the 18th Annual
Meeting of the Southeastern Fish
and Game Commissioners, there
was a symposium on squirrels.
Learned biologist from this
country and England got to-
gether and exchanged informa-
ton.
So many facts about squirrels
were discussed that a hunter
would have been amazed to
learn how much is actually
known about the grey squirrel.
Here are some of the points
of interest that might appeal TO
the hunter: 1t has been firmly
established that there are two
main breeding seasons each year
from grey and fox squirrels.
Depending on latitude, age, nu-
triton and other factors; mating
takes place in January February
and again in May-June. The
young are born in about A days
and the average litter size IS
three, but can range from one
to six.
Hunters often worry about
killing squirrels that might
have young in their nest. Re-
searchers have discovered that
only in March and May are there
no, or few, young in the nest.
Grey squirrels use their voices
TO communicate with one an
other. Alarm or danger, feed
ing, happy and mating calls have
been catalOged, along with many
others. How the hunter might
use this information is not yet
been determined-but it does
suggest that calling might be
another way to add squirrels TO
the gunner's bag.
If a squirrel is actively feed
ing and is disturbed by a hunter,
it will streak for its den. How
ever, if the gunner hides himself
well, the squirrel will return to
the outside world in less than
Is minutes.
Occasionally, squirrels are
found with only a portion of
their tail and in one case know
Of the squirrel had no tail at all.
The cause of this is usually a
female squirrel that is pregnant
or has young nearby. Other
bannertails venturing into her
territory will be attacked by her
and she generally nips them on
the tail.
That squirrels cannot often
distinguish between good and
bad nuts was proven to one
scientist. He noted one squirrel
that chewed the shell from Is
consecutive bitter, black oak
acorns before nibbling on a
sweet, white oak acorn, which
he ate.
Leaf nest have been a source

FISHING
Capt. Gene Hunt
GAIL D"
Chesapeake Beach, Md.

For weeks we have been say.
ing the good rock fishing would
start anytime. Well, now is the
time.
The fish have really hit their
stride and from here on out,
we should have plenty for every
one. Every day last week, our
boats found good fish, and l do
mean good.
We had fish going from
keepers" to cows, depending
on where you happened to be
fishing. There are good fish to
be had on the Diamond, the
Stone Rock, the Gooses, and at
Harrison's Hole.
They still have to show on
Clay Banks, Devils Hole and
the winter GooseS. These places
are deep water and wire line
is a must. We are hitting these
fish with the Bert Lamb Jelly
jack, Baltimore Rogue and the
Shark Face bait fished with a
piece of split pork rine.
Those who fish in small boats
may be interested in this: Mon
day evening it was blowing
northwest and too rough to fish
any of the places were the big
Rock are hitting. But we started
down the bay on the western
edge, hoping the wind would
lay so we could go across.
Well, the wind didn't lay and
we were returning to port when
we found some gulls working

just offshore at Randall Cliffs.
We broke out our light tackle
and were having some fun
catching pan-sized Rock when
all of a sudden we hit a fish
weighing about three pounds.
To make a long story short,
we culled about 20 pan Rock
and a half-dozen fishing weigh
ing two to three pounds, and
these fish are right off shore in
five feet of water, easy to reach
in row skiff or runabout.
They have been here for
some time and will no doubt
stay here a couple of weeks at
least. You can rent inboard
boats at the Rod n Reel Club
or at Wesley Stinnitt's, and
Wesley also has a ramp for the
guy with the runabout.
ANY OF you IolKS VINO would
like to charter a boat to go troll
ing for the good fish can do so
by phoning Alpine 7-5001. This
is the dock master at the Rod
n Reel Club, Chesapeake
Beach, Md. There are still some
good boats available and, if you
can make it, try going on a
week day. If you don't have the
tackle, check with the skipper.
Some furnish equipent and can
fix you up fine. Others don't
supply tackle but you can rent
it at the tackle shop on the dock.
The rates are S35 one half
day and $50 for an all-day trip.

Biologists have claimed for

A famed expert, Mrs. Shorten
produced written and photo

In England, the grey squirrel
is classed in the same category
as rats and other vermin and
an about effort is made to dis

paid for their dead !carcasses.
During all season men go into
the woods and knock leaf nest

Book Review:
Training The Hunting Re.
triever" by Tom Cofield, a native
Marylander, is one of the best
books the writer has seen on
this phase of hunting.

Cofield explains the step by step
procedure of training a hunting
dog. Labradors, Goldens and
Chesepeakes are treated.
The book is published by Van
Nostrand Co., Inc, Princeton,

Tip of The Week:
Want to learn how to shoot
at flying game? Take a friend
with you to a farm pond, lake
or nearby river. Have him throw
clay pigeons across the water.
Stand at height greater than
him. AS the pigeon scoots low
to the water shoot down at it.
The shot charge will hit in the
water and tell you il you shot
behind or ahead. Also gives the
new gunner an excellent idea
about shot strings.
With no guess work wonder.
ing If you shot low, too little
lead, etc. shooting over water
will teach a poor wingshot much
faster than trying to break them
from the empty sky.
