New Organdy Can Take It, Yet Looks Fragile

BY EDNA MILES
O RGANDY has taken a new
lease on life. Not that it
has ever gone out of circula

finishes and uses.
It’s a part of interior dec
orating, it’s an important part
of fashion, it even goes to the
head in ethereal bits of mil
linery. With all of this, mod
ern organdy is constructed to
take it even though it con
tinues to look fragile.

was a very colorful character and
was beloved in hundreds of Sa-

By TED RESTING
How one holds a casting rod
while retrieving a lure may not,
at first glance, seem to matter
much, but it’s one of the most
important things in fishing. It
means the difference between
utter confusion, lost fish, prob
ably broken tackle—and having
cool, complete control right
from the strike.
The one absolutely wrong way
to hold a casting rod is by the
forward grip. Actually, the thing
is there for no known purpose.
Yes, It does seem a nice place
to hold, to keep the rod in easy
balance. Then when a big fish
hits, the angler raises the rod to
set the hook, freezes to the reel
handle and pulls. There Isn’t
much else he can do.
All this because holding the
forward grip, with a fish pulling,
he can’t possibly get his left
hand down to control the spool.
(Remember, we’re speaking only
of fishing with a regular casting
reel. The forward grip is all
right in heavier fishing with a
drag-handle reel.)
In order to have control of
things In retrieving, hold the
.rod any way you please, just so
your left thumb is ready to drop
instantly onto the spool when a
fish strikes. That means keep
your hand away from the forward
grip.
There are several methods of
holding. Most veterans “palm”
the reel, holding the tailplate
cupped in the left hand — or
semipalm, with the lower part
of the palm against it but the
upper part out a little way. For
this, hold with three fingers di
rectly below the reel seat, thumb
and forefinger on top, with in
coming line passing between
them.
Holding this way has one slight
disadvantage: When a big fish
whams into the lure head on, the
thumb must be flipped back a
short distance onto the spool be
fore you have control of him.
Jason Lucas has a solution for
this problem. When using a
level-wind reel, he holds the rod
just the same way, but with his
thumb against the rear of the
top pillar, brushing the revolving
spool line. This method of hold
ing gives instant control of a
head-on striker. Held so, with
butt cap against the mid-riff, rod
and reel balance are right in your
