Diamond Lake will yield a take
of eight million rainbow trout eggs
for lh hatchery department of the
state game commission, this season,
according to Matt Ryckman, super
intendent, who hat just returned
from Central Oregon. The number
fall far short of that tsken last
season but the unusdally large
.yield rom Crane Prairie and Spend
er creek makes the total take In ex
cess of that df 1928. "Diamond
Lake waa frozen over to a depth of
three feet and as a consequence
many of tha fish i pawned near the
shore , line," said Mr. Ryckman.
"The ice was three times as thick
this season as , It was last year, and
. that accounts for the r tortagc of
rainbow eggs."
