This is exactly what the case was fought
for. This practically opens the stream

The defendant and those he represents
do not desire to detract one atom from
the rights of property owners on these
streams. On the contrary, we wish the
farmers to be protected more fully, if
possible, against the depredations on
their property. We are opposed to few
fishermen forming themselves into club
for the purpose of tying up the good
trout streams of the State by fraudulent
ly obtaining long term leases of what
they term fishing rights from one or two
farmers who happen to own land on
these streams then posting notices the
entire length forbidding fishing. The
method is to 60 to land owner and rep
resent to him that they propose to at
once put millions of trout into the streams
and improve the fishing; that no decent
fishermen will be kept off, only object
ionable parties who fish to sell fish or
abuse the right, etc. They say, of course
you or any of your friends may fish just
the same. Immediately after getting
their leases, they hire some miserable
tank to patrol the stream during. the
trout season, with instructions to keep
everybody off except members of the
club. The general public don't know

any. SO they play their bluff. | am the
