By SB '* Lans L e neve ». C Íií Rem ote. O re «or, The sportsmen of the coastal section of southwestern Oregon have certainly been sold down the river by the Oregon State Game Commissjpn. That very learned body of men wild comprise the Game Commission have once again bowed their necks and in their past best assumed, stubborn manner, have ignoreckcompletely the requset of gun clubs, sportsmen groups and single individuals; w ell read and w ell versed sportsmen, that the eight inch length lim it on trout be abolished on our southwestern Oregon coastal streams and that the old popular length lim it of six inches again be placed upon such fish. I t was requested and pointed out to the Gam e Commission that i f they wished to retain the length lim it of eight inches over in eastern Oregon, as was pretty generally requested in th at district, as w ell as favor a few clubs on the northern Oregon coast, th at they could give the anglers of extrem e southwestern Oregon, or from Reedsport on south to the C al ifornia line the six Jn ch lim it law w ithout interfering in the least w ith other districts. W hat did the Game Commission do? They gave the eastern Oregon sports men the six inch lim it length la w and a ll the rest of the state as w ell, w ith the exception of the coastal section. O ve r in eastern Oregon the trout taken in those streams such as the Deschutes and even the smaller streams run much larger in size dur ing the fly casting season than th e y do on our streams down hers, and from w hat we gleaned w hile attend ing the Game Commission meeting recently held at Portland, most of the eastern Oregon sportsmen were sat isfied w ith the eight inch lim it law and wished it retained. And so the G am e Commission, living up to past performances conducted along the line of bull-headedness and a kn o w - lt - a ll attitude, wished upon eastern Oregon sportsmen the six inch length lim it on trout and proceeded to slap the sportsmen of this district square In the face w ith the eight inch length lim it. W e believe that the.only way to ob tain satisfactory results from the Gam e Commission Is to present your views tn reverse, so to speak. There is no doubt in our mind as to the fact that had w e sportsmen down here asked for the retention of the eight inch law, thgt they, the Game Com mission, would have given us that w hich we desired— the six inch law. W e offered proof, both myself and other sportsmen as to the damage be ing caused by the eight inch law in which thousands of trout were being destroyed that w ere hooked and throw n back in order to secure an eight inch lim it of ten trout- W e of fered them — the members of the Game Commission quite a proposi tion. We Invited them to come down Into our district and that we would conduct them around and Introduce them to the anglers. W e offered to them »20 00 for every angler th at fa vored the eight Inch law , If they In turn, would give us a dpllar for each angler that wasn’t In favor of It. W e also offered to make them a wager, that If they would bring th eir rods along, (w e have heard that some of them actually know how to fish ), th at they would take all the w ay from 88, 48 or 103 trout before securing the lim it of eight Inchers. • One of the members o f the Oame Commission, we have read, was the fath er of that eight Inch lim it law ; so n atu rally, It appears that they do not wish to have us coastal anglers throw those eight inchers back into their laps. They, the Game Commis sion, it appears would rather assume the attitude that they are right in the m atter, that ten or fifteen thousand anglers know fa r less concerning the m atter than they, the commission members, do. Rather than rescind their opinion in the m atter, they pre fer, it appears, to arouse the ire of practically all the anglers in this en tire coastal country from Reedsport to Gold Beach, as w ell as individuals, commercial clubs and other organize * tions as fa r north af Yachats Before the last meeting of the Game Commission, they had through recent demonstrations of the blasting of river and stream obstructions and the planting of trout, in a manner gained back at least a small amount of re- spect t from the ranks of sportsmen in this district who have had their wishes and pleas practically ignored during the past dame administrations. A sort of feeling of good fellowship was being established between sports men’s organizations and members of the Game Commission. However, we should have re m e m b e re d that old Greek proverb: "Beware of those who come bearing gifts,” and taken heed. By th alr recent gesture the Game Commission has lost a lot of support In thia dtatrlct. Thev have lost the support and respect of Individuals and the members of many organizations. House cleanings are good m e d ic in e in any sort of government— county, city, state and up to and including the W hite House. I t is too bad that Governor H a ll did not Include the members of the State Game Commis sion In his recent house cleaning of the State Liquor C o m m issio n When this state Is divided into dis tricts and when representatives are elected by the vote of the people to represent such districts in game a f fairs— then and only then are we go ing to have good game management. I t w ill be then, that men w ell versed in the affairs of game and fish and w ild life in general w in be placed in office. Perhaps then, and only then, w ill w e at sometime have a game commission free from lawyers, doc tors and politicians. N ot that we have any thing against the first two men tioned, but they have predominated in game commission appointments for some tw en ty-five years and wo should like to see the layman given S chance now and then, Both the State Game Supervisor and his assistant arc friends of ours —a t least they were, no doubt, until they read this article. B ut even friendship w ill not stand In our way when we figure that our game ani mals and gams fish are getung a bum deal, and according to present seasons on game animals and screwy length lim its on trout, w e believe that is ex actly w hat is occurring. e js Sentinel C la s s in g A a v .. w in sell I t o e FOR R EN T!
