A Scientific View Concerning Poor Trout Fishng In Floras By l ANC LE NE VE sm all tributaries that enter the lake at different points along the shoreline. It Is also pos sible that they could have made their way from Floras Creek Into the lake via the outlet. While It may be a matter of conjecture as to how th o s e thousands of fingerlings enter- ad the lake, one must accept the fact that they really are pres ent. Ws believe that the answer to why fishing Is of such an unsuccessful nature here In the lake Is due to the fact that those fingerlings are furnishing the trout, as well as the bass, their principal food supply. That TROUT TAKE OFF is the reason that neither specie We believe that many of the Is Interested or hungry enough hatchery-raised trout, planted to accept the various offerings in the lake, failed to remain hut in the line of lures and bait took off down the lake’s outlet, that happen to be tossed their headed for the waters of New way.

Our own g u e s s is based strictly upon what may well be termed good evidence. It Is the presence of great numbers » SOUTH of small fingerling trout to be found In the lake at the present SCOAST time. Having heard of no sliver f i n g e r l i n g s being recently planted In the lake, It is safe to assume that they are native spawned and have made their way Into the lake from the During the first several days following the opening day of coastal la k e angling, Floras Lake provided the poorest fish ing to be found In any of the numerous lakes along the en- - tire coast line. Then suddenly, after about two weeks, the pic- ture changed. The trout struck hard and fast, but only for a brief spell; abruptly the good flshln’ ended. And since the spree ended, we don’t know of any angler who has enjoyed successful fishing In the w aters of Floras lake. There must be a good cause for this slump. by RIK RIIKULX CAKE BAKING CONTEST Blue Awardk G o ld Beach: Terry Burgess, to state fair. Red A wants Brookings Gennl Grover.
