After midnight fishing trip in the moonlight to Auk Lake and Peterson Creek. three Juneau fish- ermen admitted today that there were fish in the two places, that they didn't get very well acquaint- ed with them and that the water in Auk Lake is cold. very cold. Late Saturday Nance, Carson Lawrence and Carl Danielson, equipped with all the accoutrement that a .good fisher- man needs, decided to get some of the trout in Auk Lake. For hours they fished the banks of the lake and then Carson brought in a f7- inch Dolly. But that was the only h of the three nimrods for the Car- evening Buld c whole night’s work. Howe 1 got & ething It was a good ducking. Walking the banks of the lake, brightly il- luminated by a full floodlight moon, Carson stepped on a rock and found it very soft. In fagt, non-existent, a mere shadow. In he went over his head. But out he came, drenched and still deter- mined to fish. On his trip into the lake he met no fish, he claims, but he says that he’s sure are there. Peterson Creek. They say the steel- head are so thick in the creek that you can kick them out inschools, but, like the salmon in Auk Bay, too well fed to strike.

This column can't be wrong.” But it was. It was Joe Powers who caught the King. 13 Planmng to cruise down to Wind ham Bay tomorrow on Henry Sully’s boat Doboy are Mr. and Mrs. Henry Sully of Sully’s Bakery and Mr. and Mrs. Roald Copstead of the 20th Century Meat Market. Just what the party is out after is not known, but among the equip- ment is fish net, mosquito nets and possibly hair nets. Also going along are trout and trolling gear. They plan to return Friday. Walter Hellan proved his title .f master fisherman during the week- end when he and a party flew into the Admiralty Lakes to fish and think. Both the outlets and the lakes themselves were fished and a nice catch was taken by all. The vcutthroat were taken on anything from salmon to-spinners and were biting fairly good. I First fly fishing of the season was revealed today as Warrant Of- ficer Hamilton Bond came back from Sheep Creek empty-handed but with A wealth’ of information for the ardent fly fisherman. Bond says he used a black gnat at sun- - down and found that that was the only thing they would take. He said he hooked lots of them on the nasty little bug, but they were all too small to keep. Far- ther up the stream Max Lewis landed 13 of a nice size and all on flies.

First, let’s take the uppercuts, starting from the bottom and working up. An effective blow is the left uppercut to the body, used mostly in infighting and never as a lead punch. Throw it with the fist moving upward and forward from a position in which both knees are bent, the body is twisted slightly to the left, and the left shoulder is a little lower than usual. Weight goes forward and the body swings right with the blow as the knees straighten and the blow lands, palm up. To deliver the blow to the jaw the left shoulder is not held so far back nor the knees so sharply bent. Right uppercuts are essentially the same punches with Yhe other hand except that right and left foot are almost even when the punch is thrown. Arms are bent at the elbows all the way through the punches. One more punch, the right cross, and your artillery should be complete. It is a counter punch, used just after your opponent has used his left. When he leads with the left you shift your head away from the punch, to your left, step in about a foot and bring your right up and across his left to his left jaw. You use the same pivot to the left as in the other right hand punch and you'll find that the punch leaves you in position to try a left hook. 36-pound king, a beauty, she says. rday she hooked a 28-pound King Auk Bay but kept vight at it finally, almost :iving up n rowing and Ma caught the fish," says Mrs. Hanson. e NOTICE -~ preparatory in front of her home line began to run out. it for a few minutes responsible for any debts contracted by persons other than myself, from this date. adv.
