Show Strawberry now free of ice Good news from Strawberry is that the ice has finally cleared from this water and there seems to be no serious winter fish kill at this popular fishing water. This information was issued by the Department of Fish and Game following a survey of the lake. Spawners are starting to show up in the tributray streams and a check by netting net-ting in the lake indicated a good survival of fish. Concern about serious winter suffocation losses had arisen when late under-the-ice-oxygen checks showed minimum or near minimum amounts neces-seary neces-seary to sustain fish life. All signs now point to a good population of trout for the season ahead. |
