The weather has made that last little change which has most people working the soil in their flower beds or checking the sprouts in the vegetable garden. Then there are those who turn the soil but are far more interested in what the soil contains in the form of garden hackle. Spring is the best time for garden hackle, It seems the fish can have their heads turned by a worm far oftener than by any other Induce ment. Favorite lures may come and go but worms are the first and last choice of many fishermen. FAVORITE CHOICE Speaking of favorite choice, the local sportsmen and conservationists would probably pick the bureau of reclamation as the outfit that has don the most un intentional damage to wild life in this area. Not only have they provided us with on of the most ifcitv dr traps in th country, but ihy also build dams and it appears thy still don't know about th mi gratory fish runs in the Rogu and its tributaries. Recently thy hav com pleted th rebuilding of diversion dam across Bar creek which diverts watr for th Mtdford Irrigation district. Upon completion of th job. they very flc tivly closed all the bays in th dam to th extent that it was impossibl fox any liih to get by. Sine th creek has a run of stlhad going up to spawn at this time, quite a number of fish were being blocked at this point. Th situation has now been remedied and it makes one wish all such problems created by the "mrymmmmr i 1. 1 iii)i)iiiiAiinijj,.ijwwwrfyji.ji j.j tiLiinwiMW'f' u,''''m i l.jij.i,ii,miiijj.i um .wwhwtdhii wmmfumma. ip u.mmmmBmm u .m w .' unii.mnm'iwmitiy.ini'm'mtmmif : t m wwwre ' jf ' ) ' . ., " ; ' Mi- ' . :'; ..-.-.) ;; f t -. .. ..,-.,-;' , . - , r:i HO .

There is another side of the ledger and It also bears look ing into. It concerns the num ber of arrests which are made for fish and game law violations. In 1999 there were 896 ar rests made by 19 officers working in the seven south ern counties of Oregon. Of the total, 180 arrests were made in Jackson county and 72 ar rests were made in Josephine county. There were two offi cers working in each county. There is no local breakdown but over the whole state 93 per cent of the arrests re sulted In convictions. OUR RESPONSIBILITY The number of arrests may seem large or small de pending on th individual's point of view, but It must be admitted that the arrests were mad with a minimum of cooperation from thot who will profit th most from th deterrent effect of the arrests. Many of the ar rests are for minor viola lions which hav vary little effect on our wildlife and the reason for it is that those violations which do th most damage are the most difficult to prosecute. Poaching is widespread in this area and yet there ar few arrests mad because people think they are doing the right thing by protect ing those who poach. Every year there are any number of men and boys who ar consistent poachers of steelhead from Bear creek. School boys bring them horn to their fam ilies and th fish ar accept ed by th parents without any qualms as to the lesson they ar teaching thereby. Som boys brag quit loud ly as to th numbers of fish they catch each wk nd and how asy it is- to fool the cops. Those who consider youth to b th losponalbUUy of th adults may wondr whether or not adult (till accept this responsibility. Or do they hav lh naiv belief that whoever breaks th law Is only th concern of th police. If that is th case, w will never hav enough police. THE ANGLER'S LOG Those fishermen who Hate to fight the crowds covering the little bit of trout waters now open may find some sat isfaction in rowing around the 11 acre pond on the game commission's management area. Motors are not auoweu and the catfish are biting fair ly consistently. Some bass are being caught too. Klamath River - More ana more trout are showing In the catches on the California aide. A few straggler steelhead are still showing up and are de fended as still being "bright fish." The Oregon side Is pro ducing some good fishing and the fly fishermen are lucking out with bucktall coachman and an unnamed dark fly. Garden hackle Is the most popular fish-getter. Rogue River - Those who know how the salmon are bit ing aren't letting it out yet. The water conditions point to an optimistic week end but there Isn't any word on where the fish are. It would appear to be a good bet to try Ralney falls with a brass Hot Rod or two. THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER It is hoped that anyone who still doesn't understand the changes in fishing reg ulations and wants to know what the fishing prospects ar for this year will set Monday night asld as dat ed. Th Isaak Walton leagu will meet in th Red Cross building and Col Rivers, resident biologist for th gam commission, will b available for ihos who hav questions.
