110,000 Yearling Trout
Released in Rogue Area
Charles Lockwood, state game
director, announced today that
fish liberation tankers "trans
ferred 111,000 yearling rainbow
trout from holding ponds at the
Butte Falls fish hatchery to
streams of the Rogue river sys
tem in March.
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.

had in 184B-48. "
