These fish, according to my obser-
walton. usually take to the bayous to
spawn, and sitting hen always does
better if she is left alone where she
has been accustomed to lay. If it is
found later in the season that the
bayous are driving up there will be
plenty Of time to seine the ponds and
transfer desirable fish to the river
Now I think they are better off in the
