MISS HALFACRE HAS
ART IN EXHIBT
A display of work by 183 art
students at Winthrop College has
been on exhibit at Winthrop in
the administration building this
week.
Representing activities of 18
studio classes, the exhibit con
tains samples of work by stu
dents in art appreciation and ed
ucation, ceramics, craft, design,
drawing, sketching, photography,
and sculpture.
Among the seniors whose work
is being shown is Miss Mary
Nelf Halfacre, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Walton B. Halfacre of
this city.
When we asked a veteran
angler what he thought of the
new fluorescent lures, he replied
that they were better than plain
ones — sometimes. Other times
they weren’t as good as regular
ones.
This, of course, is what ex
perienced fishermen had expect
ed. But some of us were more
gullible. There were great ex
pectations based on the fallacious
idea that the more visible a lure,
the more irresistible to fish. But
veterans know this isn’t so. Some
times bright gaudy ones are best,
sometimes the dull inconsplcous
ones produce fish.
It was suggested that fluores
cent lures might reflect certain
rays visible to fish but. not to
man. However, some fairly re
cent experiments by English bi
ologists seem to prove that fish
see the same wave lengths we
do. These biologists say that
fish see colors and even shades
exactly as humans. This isn’t so
surprising since we have much
the same eye structure as theirs.
Angling editor Jay Lucas sug
gests we must consider this
point: What normal fish foods
are fluorescent to make fluores
cent lures seem natural to fish?
However, we‘ know that most
fish at all times, and the most
choosy at most times don’t seem
to give a darn what they swallow.
All a fish usually asks is that the
thing be of suitable size and seem
alive.
Should one use fluorescents?
So far as our two chief species
of game fish—bass and trout—
are concerned, it seems highly
unlikely that we’ll ever find a
lure that will be effective at all
times. Both of these fish are ex
tremely changeable in their no
tions of what they want, far more
so than any other game fish.
Even the musky, most tempera
mental of the lot, is unpredictable
only as to when he’ll strike, not
as to what he’ll strike.
What does all this add up to?
To precisely what most of us
had expected right from the
start: You should by all means
have some fluorescent flies or
plugs along to try when the light
is dull. But it would be foolish
to rely on them at all times.
