SIX The Heppner Gatette-Tlmes, Heppner, Oregon, Thunday. Trout season opens April 28 High water, cold tempera tures, muddy roads and snow have never slowed anglers in the past, and poor conditions will undoubtedly not stop them this year either, when Ore gon's general trout season opens on April 28. A certain amount of misery is expected for opening weekend; but it will be largely ignored be cause there will be lots of good fishing to go along with it. Many of Oregon's trout waters are now open year around and most others open on April 28. But there are a variety of waters that do net open until May 26, so anglers should pick up a copy of the 1984-85 angling regulations for detailed information. The booklets are available free where hunting and fishing licenses are sold. There are a few errors in the angling regulations that may cause confusion. For the southeast zone, beginning on page 26, there is a listing for steelhead under the "Season and Catch Limit" section. That should read trout, not steelhead. On page 24 there is a season and catch limit code of "IG" under the warmwater game fish category for the John Day River mainstem. That code should read "IL Many waters will be stocked with catchable-sized trout before opening weekend, in cluding many lakes and res ervoirs that are open year around. But others will not be stocked until later in the sea son after water and weather conditions have improved. Some waters are not stocked at all, but are managed for wild fish.

Although an attempt has been made to accurately reflect water, road and campground conditions, it should be rem embered that weather on the days immediately prior to the opening can have a major influence on fishing prospects.

Se Mustangs fail to earn 2nd By TRAVIS HYATT The Heppner Mustangs went to Umatilla last Tuesday hoping to gain their second victory. It didnt happen. The lack of hitting was evident in this game.

Symptoms can be confused with nitrogen defic iency. Disease symptoms seem to be exaggerated by other encironmental stress. Yield losses from yellow dwarf virus can be extremely variable but are usually in the range of S-20 percent. Higher losses can occur. The disease is caused by a virus spread by feeding ap hids. Yield losses are most evere when plants are infect ed when they are small. The most practical way to reduce losses from yellow dwarf virus in winter wheat is to delay seeding so that plants emerge after aphid popula tions are reduced by cool fall weather. However, later seed ing reduces yield potential and can result in more soil erosion. Growers should not change successful management practices unless significant disease losses occur. The success of insecticides to control aphids and reduce losses from yellow dwarf virus is yet to be proven. For more information, con tact the OSU Extension Office in Heppner.
