Fishermen can expect to find excellent fishing this summer at Navajo Lake, according to Bud Camp, Wildlife Conservation Officer for the Utah State Department of Fish and Game. Mr. Camp reported that few fish died during the winter and the fish carried over the mild winter in excellent condition. The investigation was recently completed by Camp with the aid of Kay Boulter, Wildlife Officer from Parowan. According to Mr. Camp, heavy winter losses are common in many of the higher more shallow lakes such as Navajo. Shallow clear lakes produce an abundance of acquatic vegetative growth during the warm summer V long heavy winter will re' sult in a layer of ice and snow ! that will not allow the sunlight to penetrate. The plants die and during the process of decomposition much of the oxygen is used. Is As the oxygen content in the wat-e- r drops to the critical point the fish actually die of suffocation. Mr. Camp also stated that the Utah Department of Fish and Game plans a heavy stocking program of catchable size rainbow trout.
