Trash Fish Being Killed At Lake The game commission has been working for several weeks trying to reduce the number of trash fish, perch, suckers and carp, up at Lake o' the Woods to make the beautiful recreation spot more suitable for trout, and it is believed that present control measures will prove effective. The field agent at the lake has collected and destroyed a considerable quantity of perch spawn, netting it off the mud bottom and vegetation. Working from another angle a trap has been placed over the mouth ot a slough used as a spawning area. The fish enter the trap and come to their ends via poison. When this work is completed and adequate stocks of trout put in, Lake o' the Woods fishing should take a strong turn for the better and be something to talk about in years to come. Two Anglers 57 Trout $100 Fine Each Two men and 57 trout didn't set well with game wardens Sunday, so yesterday at Tennant Glenn Edward Tomkin of Weed and Mervin Wil liam Tomkin of ML Shasta paid fines of $100 each for exceeding the legal California bag limits. One of the brothers had 22 fish, the other 35, when they were arrest ed. The legal Umit is 15. They had caught the trout in a remote stream near Mt. Shasta. In justice court at McCloud yes terday Lyle Witt of Dunsmuir paid a $25 fine for fishing in McCloud river without a license. On Radio Show Arlo Schultz.
