Grants Pass A revolution ary suggestion to improve ang ling in the famed Rogue river was advanced by Cole Rivers, resident biologist for the Ore gon state game commission, at a meeting of the Rogue Rod and Gun club here last week. The suggestion is closure of the middle Rogue to all trout fishing to allow passage of steel head fingerlings downstream to the ocean. Area between Galice and Gold Hill on the river "would bear the brunt of such a pro gram. Ken Hicks, reporting the pro posal for the Grants Pass Cour ier, pointed out that such a plan may draw considerable opposi tion from Grants Pass and oth er middle river fishermen. The Grants Pass newsman stated that Rivers, at the meeting, gave a "frank analysis of 'what is wrong' with Rogue river fish ing and what the Oregon game commission is doing to improve angling in this famed stream and its tributaries." Just Being Studied Rivers stressed to his listen ers that the suggestion is yet in the study stage. He said that there is no cause for immediate concern. Nevertheless, he indi cated that the practice of catch ing these fish on both upstream and downstream migrations must be : modified if steelhead and salmon runs, which have made the Rogue, Applegate and Illinois rivers famous, are to be restored. In telling what is wrong with salmon and steelhead fishing, especially on the middle and upper portions of the river, the biologist presented statistics showing tremendous increase in angling pressure in the past 10 years. While there are three or four times as many anglers in Oregon as there were in 1940, the ratio of increase for the Rogue is eight, nine or even 10 times, according to Rivers. Angling pressure inevitably has curtailed creel catch of all Rogue anglers. Rivers stated. He said, "Anglers are harvesting an ever-increasipg number of steel head and salmon along the low er river. This is bound to de crease the number of fish avail able along the middle and up per stretches ..." With the dividing of the catch among so many persons, many gain the imnression that Rogue fishing has gone to pot, Rivers brought out. Key Stream Syslam The game commission field man said that, if game officials decide to close the middle Rogue and the Applegate a "key stream system" likely would be put into effect. Certain key streams would be selected for trout fish ing and heavily stocked with non-migratory trout. Objective would be good trout fishing and the public would be advised of trout planting dates and areas. Rivers reported that,, some consideration was being given to planting "pan fish" or spiny rayed fish in the middle section of the Rogue to afford angling for children and adult casual fishermen. Answering criticism of the game commission for not stock ing the Rogue more heavily, Rivers gave information show ing that, more than 10 per cent of commission funds are spent in this area although license fees for the area are less than 10 per cent of the state total. Turbine screening at Savage Rapids dam should help down stream migration of steelhead fingerlings, according to'RiveVs. But he voiced doubt that "fish ing at both ends" of the river will be advisable much longer if fish runs are to be built up. Silver Prospects Poor Rivers mentioned fall, spring and winter steelhead and spring and fall chinook salmon runs. He said that Applegate chinook salmon runs have been increas ing in the Applegate but barely holding their own in the Illin ois river. Prospects of restoring runs of silver salmon to the middle and upper Rogue are poor, Rivers reported. Small tributaries needed for silvers and sea-run cutthroat to spawn suffered irreparable damage in the scramble for timber in war years, the speaker said. He stat ed that the game commission still is trying to restore the sil ver salmon run into the Illin ois, Grave creek and other streams of the area. The game commission is con centrating on salmon and steel head improvement because the Rogue basin primarily is noted for these runs, Rivers said. He added that the steelhead picture is encouraging to biologists but that a great deal of the improve ment program must be devoted to protecting watersheds.
