Show GOOD FISHING DEFINED Some people think that Just catching fish Is good fishing This may be right for those people who have just caught those eleven and twelve inch fish at Panguitch Lake. Possibly some of the skeptics on poisoning the lake should open their eyes and look at some of the other lakes that have been poisoned in the past few years, such as Strawberry. Mlnersville and Johnson Reservoir. These lakes are producing fish that weigh from 1 N to 2 pounds in one year. Compare that to our H to 3 '4 pound fish in Panguitch Lake With the new chemicals the Fish and Game personnel have now they only have to use one part per billion parts of water, so much less chemical is need ed. With this new chemical it will also kill the chub eggs on the bottom so we will get a better kill on the trash fish. The trout below the lake will be saved this time by either neutrilizing the stream or poisoning after the irrigation water has been turned off. In the article last week it stated no chubs were caught, possibly we should check the Fish and Game gill net check There was 1 native trout, 43 rainbow trout and 442 chubs Which type of fish is doing the best?
