Fishermen
Advised To
Check Rules
Portland - Oregon anglers
are urged by the game com
mission to check the angling
regulations before venturing
out for the opening of the gen
eral trout season on Saturday,
April 20.
In general, the April 20 date
will open all waters of the
state to trout angling except
lakes in the Cascade and
Paulina mountains within na
tional forest boundaries, and
all coastal streams in zone 1,
which includes Columbia riv-
tributarics to St. Helens,
and streams in zones 3 and 4.
These areas will remain closed
to trout. angling until May 25.
All lakes in the coastal zone
will open April 20 as will the
upper portions of the Ump
qua and Rogue rivers in zones
3 and 4.
Anglers planning to fish in
streams heading in the coast
range from the east side
should be careful that they do
not cross over into waters of
the coastal zone. Each year
well-meaning but uninformed
fishermen are surprised and
dismayed to learn they are il
legally fishing in tributaries
of the coast streams, such as
the Nehalem, Wilson, Nes
tucca and Siletz. The main
trouble spots appear to be
Rock creek, Wolf creek and
the upper Salmonberry in the
Nehalem system. Anglers are
reminded these streams are
tributaries of the Nehalem
which will not open until
May 25.
Don't Qualify
In clarification of the def
inition of "lake," as applied
to the April 20 opening in
zone 1. commission personnel
offer this suggestion: If the
body of water is a natural lake
and bears a name or is a man-
made impoundment, then the
body of water qualifies as a
lake. Beaver dams in the
stream course which back up
small pools or ponds of water
do not quality tor tne cany
opening.
Anglers in doubt should
check the detailed synopsis of
the angling regulations avail
able at all license agencies.
Recent wintry weather is
expected to have little effect
on the enthusiasm of thou
sands of Oregonians when the
general trout season opens
Saturday but it might) hold
down catches, the state game
commission said.
Many streams, as well as
lakes and reservoirs, have
been stocked.
The commission emphasized
angler success will depend on
water conditions. Snow run
off could dampen opening
week end success in some
areas, while muddy conditions
because of damp weather are
expected in many spots.

lation? Maybe the manufaa
turcrs have taken some of the
rabbit out of the ball? Or per
haps the pitchers are getting
away with that old devil the
spitball'.'
Whatever the reason, the
pitchers have been , having a
ball at the expense of the hit
ters during the first two
weeks of the campaign.
The figures show that there
have been nine shutouts pitch
ed and only 59 homers hit in
the AL's first 35 games. At
such a pace over the entire
season the pitchers would ac
cumulate 180 shutouts - far
more than the league record
of 146 set in 1909 and con
siderably above the major
league record of 163 in one
league set by the National
league in 1908.
Also, a mere 59 homers in
35 games represents a 13 per
cent decrease in homer out
put from 1962 when AL slug
gers hit 1,552 in 810 games.
First Stigman Shutout
There were only two games
played in the American league
Thursday and both resulted in
shutouts. Dick Stigman pitch
ed the first major league shut
out of his career to give the
Minnesota Twins a 3-0 win
over the Los Angeles Angels
and Ray Herbert tossed a
three - hitter as the Chicago
White Sox beat the Kansas
City Athletics, 3-0.
Two homers were hit -one
by the Twins, Earl Battey and
another by the White Sox'
Dave Nickolson.
Stigman, a 27-year-old lefty
in his fourth big league sea
son, gave up scratch singles to
Lee Thomas and Albie Pear
son and a solid double to Jim
Fregosi. He struck out five
and walked only one,
Herbert, a 20-game winner
last season, struck out five
and walked only one in post
ing his first win of 1963. Floyd
Robinson scored the first two
White Sox runs after a single
and a double and Nicholson'
homered in the seventh for
their final run. Nelson Fox
singled for the Sox' fourth hit
- the 2,400th hit of the little
second-baseman 'a career.

Local fishermen ought to
find some interest in HB 1832,
whicli was introduced by Rep
resentatives W. O. Kelsay,
Sidney Lcikcn. and Senator
Al Flegel at the request of
the Roseburg Rod and Gun
Club.
GAME COMMISSION
This piece of legislation
would give tht gam com
mission sole jurisdiction over
"the fiah in any of the riven,
bays, streams, lakes, inlets,
loughs, or other water or
tributaries thereof in the slat
or any waters over which th
state has jurisdiction, concur
rent or otherwise. Including
water of the Pacific Ocean,
extending for one mile sea
ward from the coast, within
the boundaries of the state or
over which the state has juris
diction."
The fish commission would
transfer all jurisdiction and
power over fish to the gam
commission except that which
applied outside th limit ex
tending . on mil seaward
from th coast. This would
limit all commercial fishing
to th Pacific Ocean beyond
th on mil limit, and It
would place all fish within
th described boundary under
sport or game fish regulations.
WOW1
If this proposed bill be
came law there would be a
great deal more lost by the
commercial fishing interests
than just -the right to the
stcclhead arid salmon in the
Columbia river. It is an ex
treme reaction to a situation
that needs some solution,
even thought this bill is not
the best or wisest means of
finding it. It is the result of
an attempt to place control
of all anadromous fish in the
hands of interests other than
sports fishermen.
SOLUTION NEEDED
Th stelhad and salmon
fisheries of Oregon are worth
a lot to th economy of th
siat. It has always been th
belief of this writer that Or.
gon would gat more out of its
fisheries if stlhad war
mad a gam fish and re
served solely for th sports
fishing industry. Eventually
this will com to pass, and
th commercial fishing inter
ests will have to face giving
up th Columbia river as ihay
had to give up netting in th
other rivers of th slate.
HB 1832 would not b If
th commercial fishing intar-
sts were not trying to place
control of all anadiomou
fish in th hands of on agen
cy. This agency is reported
to be a part of th depart
mnt of natural resources
that th. governor is allampt
ing to create in th present
legislature. Proposed amend
ments to th bill creating this
department make it illegal for
anyone ever connected with
a sports group to have any
function in an agency con
trolling th salmon and steel
head of th Stat. Commercial
interests are not so limited.
Conclusions, anyone?
THE ANGLER'S LOG
All anglers are urged to
check the angling regulations
before going out tomorrow.
Every year there are a few
illiterates who show up on
the Rogue, Applegate, and
other streams that are closed
and won't open until May 25.
Poor readers are cautioned
to play it safe and go to one
of the lakes that will be open.
lhc only difficulty with this
advice is that the weather
may make it impossible to get
to any of the lakes on open
ing day.
Fish Lake The last rtsarl
showed 14 inches of snow at the
lake and more coming down. The
axe la tun ana clear, out the
roads to it are not getting in bet
tcr shape as time goes on. Eager
lishermen are advised that chains
will be required and anyone try
ing to pull a trailer up there had
better not try It. There are plenty
of lish in the lake the game com
mission planted 190.053 rainbow
and 41.610 eastern brook laat Au
gust and September. They were
planted as three to five inchera
and should be legal size by now.
Hold-over fish from previous sea
sons Will run UP to a fat 20 Ineheu
and between three and four
pounds.
Howard Prairie The pavement
waa clear to the lodge as of yes
terday afternoon, but the latest re
ports Indicate snow and more
snow for the area over the week
end. The road to the dam was
open it the last report. Chains
may be necessary by opening
morning. Fishermen are cau
tioned to check with the state
police just before going up. Last
August the lake received 498.731
rainbow, and they should be about
eight inches long by now. Catches
are expected to show fiah up to
28 or 30 Inches this year.
Hyatt Lake The highway from
the Greensprlngs highway is im
passable, and the road in from
Howard Prairie, at last report,
was open to within about 300
yards of the lake. Brave, adventu
rous souls who want to try to
reach the lake are adviaed to
check with the state police before
and not after. The game commis
sion planted 100,032 rainbow last
August. Also planted were 17 bass
about to spawn and 794 blueglll.
