OPENING THE sHAD SEASON. .

Fishe rmen Along the Connecticut
River Making Preparations.
While the shad season is now open,
the law permitting the fish to be taken
from March / to June 90, the season
proper will not begin for some weeks.
The alewives, or "whops," as they are
more commonly called, that always pre-
cede the arrival of the shad, have not
yet put in an appearance, but they are
expected to begin to ''run" almost any
day now. After the "whops" have been
begin to arrive.
Shad are found in the Connecticut
river as far up as Holyoke dam. The
most prominent fisheries are at Crom-
well and Rocky Hill. Last year after
the opening OF the shad season there
came a complaint from the fishermen at
Rocky Hill that although plenty
of fish were being taken below at
Cromwell, none could be caught at
Rocky Hill. 1t is said that the fishermen
at the former place had taken means to
mon device used to effect this is a rope
to which pieces of wood are attached,
stretched across the stream. The move
ment of the pieces of wood, caused by
the action of the current, is said to
brighten the shad and keep them from
going by. Whether or not such device
was used by the fishermen down the
river, it is fact that after Game War
den Collins had visited the scene the
shad began running up the stream as
usual.
The law requires that nets with
meshes less than two and one half inches
square cannot be used prior to June %
except by permission of the fish commits
sioners. Fishermen have been taking
shad from the Hudson river for the past
three weeks
