dry afternoons.
And if you enjoy hunting and
you're probably alre<
fishing, you're probably already
geared for what can be the most
productive time of year for over
lapping the two sports.
It's a really tough to choose
between hunting and fishing
during the early fall, a problem
that evervone wishes they had.
For it is the early fall season
when all of the following take
place: 1) dove season opens, 2)
squirrel season opens, 3)large~
mouth bass creep into a fall pat
tern, 4) flounder and golden
croaker make their way out of
the bays into the Gulf of Mexico,
and 5) bull redfish (in excess of
36 inches) strip surf fishermen of
miles and miles of monofilament.
Viewing it on paper, it sounds
almost too good to be true
doesn't it?
Well it all happens, and the
toughest part about cashing in
on the action can be deciding
which species to pursue.
The state's dove hunting sea
son thus far has received mixed
reviews depending upon which
camp you wish to get your infor
mation from. The season which
lasts through Oct. 31 and runs
again from Jan. 2-10 (Central
Zone dates) has seen excellent
numbers of birds pushed into
their migratory pattern by the
early cool fronts. The best re
ports have come from plowed
fields and stock tanks, and cro
ton fields, further south.
Keep in mind that even
though these first few cool fronts
will push good numbers of birds
our way, a 20 mph north wind
can make the tiny target very dif
ficult to hit. In other words, re
member to take plenty of shells.
For counties that have a sea
son on squirrels, euphemism for
a strong population of the crit
ters, the season opens today and
runs through Jan. 15. The daily
bag for squirrels is 10 with a pos
session limit of 20. This is where
a Type II permit can come in
handy for poor hunters like stu
dents.
The permit allows the holder
to hunt over 100,000 acres of
state land managed by the Texas
Parks and Wildlife Department.
At a cost of $35, it's affordable,
and it allows access to land in
East Texas which is literally
crawling with squirrels. Check
with the local TPWD office if you
have any questions about the
permit and its benefits.
That other outdoor sport cur
rently heating up is fishing, and
on the coast, it will continue to
get hotter as water temperatures
fall from bathwater high 80s into
the mid-70s.
The flounder run will be
spurred by each cool front, and
the fish will be concentrated in
the passes that lead to the gulf.
They can be taken with hook and
line or with a gig, an easy way to
fill a freezer. The flatfish travel
in large schools as they migrate,
and by using a gig and night
l*ght or lantern, good numbers of
them can be taken during the
right.
If jabbing fish with a gig is not
your cup oftea, don't forget
about the monsters that run the
surf this time of year. Big bull
redfish run the surf in schools
and will eat just about anything
on the end of a hook. These are
not the same fish caught in the
bays by any means. These are
catch-and-release only because
most of them will far exceed the
28 inch maximum. But don't
let that stop you fromdoingbat-
tie with a 30 pound fish.
Toss a coin, draw straws or
close vour eyes and point if
you're having problems deciding
which species you want to pur
sue. Tlie action won't last long
so get while the gettin's good!

A&M golfers grab first at Woodlands Aggies
FROM STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
THE WOODLANDS —Second-day rounds of 73
by Morgan Brown and Ryan Dreyer helped the Texas
A&M golf team earn their first tournament win of the
year Wednesday in the 18-team Woodlands Intercol
legiate Tournament held at the Tournament Players
Course of the Woodlands.
The Aggies were without their top returner, Mar
co Gortana, who was busy representing his home
country of Italy at the 1992 Eisenhower World Ama
teur Cup in Vancouver, Canada.
A&M head coach Bob Ellis said that a tournament
win of this magnitude without Gortana's presence
was a prime example of overcoming the odds.
"This was really a nice win," Ellis said. "It was
very important that we did it without Marco.
"It was really a struggle out there today. I am
very encouraged about the way we played in the
tough (weather) conditions and on fast greens."
Brown's consistency helped ease the pain of losing
Gortana, as he shot a two-day total of 147 to tie for
third in the individual standings, four strokes behind
medalist Matt Mocniak of Stephen F. Austin.
"I was really pleased with the performance of
Morgan," Ellis said. "He did not hit the ball that
well, but he had a great day with the putter."
Dreyer and Anthony Rodriguez each carded totals
of 150 to tie with four other golfers for seventh in the
individual race. A&M's Brent Brown finished the
tourney at 155 strokes, good enough for 27th. And
newcomer Dru Fenimore's total of 159 placed him in
a seven-way tie for 40th.
The Aggies' team total of 601 barely nipped Hous
ton, who finished second with a 603. SFA rounded
out the top three with 604 strokes.

Brett reaches 3,000 hit plateau
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ANAHEIM. Calif.- George
Brett, who fought through an in
jury-filled career to become one of
the most prolific hitters ever, sin
gled off Tim Fortugno in the sev
enth inning Wednesday night to
follow Robin Yount of Milwaukee
into 3,000-hit club.
Brett became the 18th player to
get 3,000 hits in the major leagues,
adding his name to list that began
this season with Pete Rose at the
top and Roberto Clemente at the
bottom. And he did it with the
59th game of his career in which
he had four or more hits.
Brett hit the first pitch over sec
ond baseman Ken Oberkfell into
right field for his fourth hit of the
night. Royals players rushed out
onto the field to hug him, and
took first base back to the dugout.
The hit was three weeks to the
day after Yount reached 3,000 and
20 years to the day after the late
Roberto Clemente achieved that
figure. The 39-year-old Kansas
City Royal added one of the final
jewels in a 19-year career that in
cludes the distinction of being the
only player to win batting titles in
three decades: 1976,1980,1990.
Brett remained in the game af
ter an ovation that lasted about
five minutes.
Brett, who returned to the line
up after sitting out two days with
a sore shoulder, had a slicing dou
ble in the first inning off Julio
Valera.
In the second, Brett followed
Wally Joyner's leadoff single with
a ground single through the right
side of the infield.
After singling on 1-1 pitches
his first two times up, Brett
swung at a 1-0 pitch leading off
the fifth. He again made solid
contact, lining the ball to center.
The Angels' Junior Felix, who
didn't have a play on the ball,
fielded it on one hop.
well, because we were thin at
ceiver before he went down, a
now we're about as green aswe
can be at that position.
"It will definitely beniceto
have them back during conference
play" .
Slocum also said he feltwi
the early start the Aggies got off
to and playing three of the first
four games on the road, last week
end's break in the schedule wasa
necessity before starting confer
ence play this weekend against
Tech.
"We had real good practices
last week," Slocum said. "Wehad
four full days of pads with no in
juries, plus we had unseasonably
cool weather which makes it more
fun to work out.
"It was good to get a break,be
cause you can get mentally stale
in this game. If you get stale men
tally, you look like you're stale
The best part was, wegota
chance to get some players
healthy without losing anymore'
After hosting the Red Raiders
this weekend, Slocum and his
A&M squad will have another
week off before hosting Rice Uni
versity on Oct. 17.
Slocum said that extra week off
would give the Aggies even more
chance to help his injured players
recuperate before getting into the
heat of the conference race.

true pass rusher they really need
ed.
And the Steelers, who were
the most hated group of individ
uals to all those in Dallas, have
started 3-1 but are sure to falter
before mid-season.
Pittsburgh will have trouble
building another 'Steel Curtain'
defense without Thomas Everett,
who is, of course, now a member
of the Cowboys camp.
Haley and Everett are just the
final pieces of the puzzle that will
lead the Cowboys back to 'Super
Sunday.'
Everett could be the kind of
player that excels for the Cow
boys because he may feel more
comfortable playing in the state
of Texas, and more specifically, in
Dallas, which is less than two
hours from his hometown of
Daingerfield.
And when Dallas gets there,
all the fans can thank the Steelers,
the Niners, and most of all, the
Minnesota Vikings.
Were it not for Minnesota,
Dallas' entire lineup would con
sist of Herschel Walker, and no
one else. That's because a large
number of the players in skill po
sitions for the Cowboys came ei
ther directly or indirectly from
the Walker trade.
And what did Minnesota get
for it? Three mediocre seasons
and the agony of seeing Walker
go to Philadelphia this season
and start off with a bang.
Now, after reaping the benefits
of trading Walker, the Cowboys
get the chance Monday night to
show Herschel how much better
off the team is without him. Not
only that, but at the same time.
Dallas gets another shot at taking
down the lowest-class team with
the lowest-class fans at Philadel
phia's Veterans Stadium.
A win over the Eagles would
move Dallas to 4-0. And after the
1-15 Cowboys of 1989 received
the kind of treatment Philadel
phia fans can dish out, any win in
the state of Pennsylvania is espe
cially sweet.
Almost as sweet as singing
"...Houston Oilers, Houston Oil
ers three-and-one."
Or almost as sweet as meeting
a woman who is a diehard Cow
boys fan.
And having her sing with you.
