THE TROUT SEASON
SHOULD BE GOOD

Game and Fish Commissioner
Woodard has issued the following
statement:
ITO the Public:-Tnere has been
planted in the public waters of this
state during the years 1903 and 1904
young trout, by the state S,641, 900,
and by the United States government
6,937 500, making grand total OF
l5,5I9,100. These fish are now of
lawful size and ready for the angler,
and there is no reason why the sea
son of 1906 should not be the most
successful of any year during the his.
tory OF Colorado. Nineteen hundred
and ive was very prosperous year
for this department, and 1906 will be
more so, as we now have two addi-
uonal hatcheries that promise good
results, and there is no possible doubt
but the fishing in Colorado will in
crease every year in the future.
1T is costing the state of Colorado
$4,000 for each biennial period to
propagate, plant and protect this
fish. and we sincerely hope that all
persons owning land along fishing
streams will be liberal-minded enough
to allow the public unlimited fishing
privileges in these streams. subject
10 damage In tresspass. If this very
desirable result can not be reason
ably brought about it will be neces-
sary for the next legislature to take
some very radical action with view
OF bringing about the desired result.
We know that all necessary fishing
can be done in any stream in this
state without doing one cent of dam
age TO any persons property. and as
the public is only asking for what
justly belongs to 1t see no reason
why there should be any trouble.
