ROGUE RIVER ANGLING
WJ'" who live in small tr isolated comiiiuiiitii's fre
quently lost; our perspective. A distorted vision
magnifies little tilings into groat ones. Tritlintf affairs
loom gigaiitie on the horizon of our thoughts. Brooding
over real or fancied wrongs in the narrow circles of (un
lives, viewing the world through the mist of selfish desires,
we lose our sense of proportion, and petty grievances at
tain a size that obscures justice and smothers our sense of
right mid wrong.
Some of our banks, hotels and business men: upon re
quest of intolerant and impatient anglers, have, gout; on
record in favor of destroying the principal industry, with
the largest payroll, in southern Oregon, the chief resource
of the people of Curry county; in order to provide better
sport for recreation seekers in Jackson county. They
would confiscate tin investment of a quarter of a million
dollars and lake away the only occupation that the meager
natural resources of a mountainous, rock-ribbed, brush
covered region affords. They would create want, poverty
and hardship by destroying the occupation of many, that
their own pleasure might be increased. They would de
stroy one of the few resources and industries of southern
Oregon and waste a valuable food product to enlarge the
sportsmen s pleasure. hat
I lie remedy suggested is worse by far than the evil to
be cured, it was tried once and proved a quack remedy.
It filled 1 he si ivam with salmon', littered its hanks with the
dead fish after s. awning, their foul odor endangering the
health of the coimiimiiiies along the banks, but it did not
improve sleelhead angling.
J he drasti'- program sought is not only undemocratic,
but unjust. It cannot be defended upon moral or ethical
grounds. Nor in there any commercial defense. It is inde
fensible. The Mail Tribune opposes it because it is not
only inherently wrong, but because it is futile and would
not accomplish the object sought which is better steel
head angling.
We all would like to see better anjilinu' in our streams.
particularly in the Rogue river. Commercial fishing for
trout and steelhead is alreadv
L'oguo is the only stream in
lislnng is thus prohibited. There have been no violations
reported at the mouth for steelhead fishing. There have
been many violations for salmon fishing, due to' the endless
Avar between seiners and netters, but as the steelhead can
not be legally taken or sold, there is no object for taking
them, and neither cannery will handle them. The estab
lishment of the dead line at the mouth, tri vine: fish a chance
to get up the narrows, will
rnere tuo past two seasons.
For many years steelhead and salmon were both plenti
ful in L'ogue river. Both were taken eoinmerciallv. not
only at the mouth of the stream, but along its entire length.
'Pi... 1 I I . i. i " ji , "
,i in- iiiuMuu j leiu oi. summit was mucu larger mail at pres
ent, though much more hatchery work is now done. That,
however, was in the time when unifiers were few. before
the days of dams and irrigation ditches and hundreds of
skillful anglers. Each irrigation ditch wastes more fish
than a hatchery turns out and there are over GUI) such
ditches in Jackson countv alone. And the divci-simi r.r
water, combined with the' three years' deficit in rainfall,
has kept the stream low and uninvilimr of ascent bv the
fish.
This tremendous loss of
duits upon his own place was responsible for the invention
of a rotarv. self-cleanimf screen bv a Jackson ennntv
uvter, This screen has been
commission, but shortage of
man ure.
Let the fishermen and the business men, instead of
quixotically attacking industry and confiscating invest
ment, spend a similar amount of energy and nioiiev in pre
serving the voutnf fish I roin
fields and orchards by having all'ditches screened. Let
them prevent spawning fish from entering streams that
dry up in summer. Let them secure a workable fislnvav
over the Anient dam. Let them secure enlarged hateli
cries, instead of the withdrawal of all government hatch
ery work through stopping commercial fishing. Let them
secure a closed season for spawning steelhead. If these
abuses are remedied fish will be plentiful enough in the
average season. If they are not remedied, not even a
closed river will insure steelhead fishing.
