Show FISH AND GAME HIGHLIGHTS The 1951 fishing and hunting licenses began to leave Department Depart-ment of Fish and Game offices April 1. They should be in the hands of all vendors within two weeks following. Department spokesmen note that anyone planning an early fishing trip to any of the waters open for year around angling must possess a 1954 license. The 1953 license is good through April 15, last day of the fish and game license year in Utah. Only minor changes other than coloration will be noted in this year's licenses and deer tag. The law requires they be worn "visibly "vis-ibly on an outer garment at all times when fishing, hunting or trapping." The "wild" trout rearing experiment ex-periment continued generally successful as it was carried thru its second year by the fish and game department. Records from five reservoirs used in the program with one ' exception show a fine growth and ret u it. from plantings of i fingerling rainbow trout. The exception ex-ception occurred when little return re-turn of fish was realized from 1 small fish planted during the late fall months and recovered a year later. , In all other instances the plant were made in the spring and fish recovered at the end of the grow ir season as the reservoirs were drained. All the waters are used I chiefly for irrigation and are I normally drained each fall. For this reason they have been previously pre-viously unproductive of fish life. |
