The Rogue river received 41, 000 of these fish and the Apple gate river received 22,000 trout. Also stocked with trout were Evans creek, Sucker creek, Butte creek, Elk creek, Galice creek, Little Butte creek, and East fork of the Illinois river. Squaw Lake Fish These heavy plantings of year ling trout will continue through April and June. Squaw lake will also receive a stocking of year ling fish in April. Under a cooperative agree ment recently completed be tween the game commission and the lake owners, Squaw lake will be made accessible to the general fishing public. Yearling trout are fish that have been held over from the preceding year so that a good growth may be obtained. When early liberations begin in March the trout average about six inches and later in the spring they may range up to nine inches in length. Silver Salmon Plant A plant of 50,000 silver sal mon is scheduled for the Rogue river, Big Butte creek and the Applegate river in May. These silver salmon will range from six to seven inches in length. At this fize silver salmon us ually head straight for the sea and their chances for survival are much better than if released as fingerling fish according to Cole Rivers, local fishery agent for the game commission.
