Lawson Brian's two big trout ponds reflected a blue sky and the black dog, Cinder, jumped in the water for a swim, the day was that warm. The 164 acre ranch with its springw’ater ponds, its sun - warmed slope to the west, its trees, hatchery and hide-away sportsman s club, is just a Sat Now In... urday hobby for busy business man Brian. That it’s a fun hobby is evi dent from the inviting beauty of the ponds in their natural set ting of trees, fern and wild flowers. That it's conducted with the acumen of an experienced bus inessman becomes evident as Brian explains the hatchery op eration he has been conduct ing for approximately six years. He buys eyed eggs (eggs SPECIALIZING IN BALL EXTRA EARLY and NK POLARIS VARIETIES TOMATO PLANTS EARLY-PRODUCING OF PLANTS Two new varieties that produce medium-size fruit, extra early ALL VARIETIES, HIGHEST QUALITY Bedding Plants - - - 49c Order Now for Next Year 3-YEAR-OLD TROPICAL Rhododendrons AFRICAN EMPRESS TREE leovei 2-Ft. Ac rots aU In Bloom Sappho ■ David —Unique - Madam Mason & 10 others S198 I Janz Berryland Loop Highway Sandy which have the look of an eye from the embryo fish that is developing). He buys these from two places, both in the state of Washington. He says there is no place in Oregon that can supply him with tne number of these eyed eggs his hatchery requires. Brian says trout eggs are available almost year-'round now, so he can start his fish all during the year. He has the eggs flown in and plants them on "baskets” in two ta ble-high pools inside the hatch ery building. There were no eggs to be seen last week, but Brian dem onstrated how the eggs are spread out on the baskets — fine wire screens with wood en frames. They are floated on the water at first. As the little fish, termed “fry,” develop they are submerged. Great care must be taken in this step, Brian says. "You can't starve a fish." he says, “but you can drown him.” Pressure Exhausts He explains this by pointing out that for several weeks these tiny trout-to-be are ab sorbing the nourishment in the egg. Once submerged they can “drown" if there is too much pressure in the current of wat er. They can become exhaust ed fighting against the water pressure and die. These very young fish must be taught how to feed, as they lack instinctive feeding know how. Brian says when he began the operation he learned that the little fellows should feed every hour around the clock. "I went out to buy feeders for them," he said, "and found there weren't any on the mar ket. I couldn't see hand feed ing them every hour, io I got John Anderson holds rainbow trout he «aught In time It took to reload camera. These came out of upper pond at Brian's Trout Ranch. (Sandy Post photo) busy and built feeders." He did a very thorough job. From an alarm clock he built a switch that turns on first an electric light. This is to let the little fish know food is a 'coming. Then the wheel-type feeders he has set several feet above the water begin to turn around, dispensing the right "grind" for the age the fish happen to be. Special Ration Fed The fish are fed a commer cial fish ration whose label lists 36 ingredients. It comes in dif ferent grinds, the finest about the size of table pepper. As the fish grow the feed is coars er, with the eight • inch and larger fish getting pellets the size of rabbit pellet feed. Once the fish learn to feed they become enthusiastic eat ers — so much so that the bigger ones will eat the lit tle fellows up. To prevent this Brian sorts them. When they are from three to five inches long he separates the larger ones and removes them to outside ponds. "As soon as you can get the fish out of man made con tainers and into outside ponds, tile better they do,” Brian says, As they continue to grow he moves them to other pools, un til they become large enough tor the big, beautiful ponds where club members and friends come to catch them. Actually they don't all go in to the big lake • like ponds on Brian’s place. He has built up a brisk fish business and sells them at all ages and sizes, in large lots or small, to people who want to stock their own ponds In discussing the problems of raising fish in ponds Brian listed what he calls “the four catastrophies." The first one is snakes. Snakes enjoy a fish dinner and will attempt to swallow a fish twice their own mouth-size. The second catastrophy could be mink and otter. Brian says he has neither of these as far as he knows. Another bugaboo is the king fisher, a fish - loving bird. By far the worst menace, says Brian, is the human be ing To combat this there is a caretaker on the place at all times who has been depu tized by the county sheriff so he'll have the authority to ar rest poachers.
