CAN'T EVEN CATCH
YOUR OWN FISH!
SO RULES ASSISTANT ATTORNEY
GENERAL AFTER EXHATSTING
LAW LIBRARY REFERENCES.

Fish are fish. for all that, and SO
long as they remain within the water
they are thSs property OF the general
public. whether or not the body Of
water Is owned by private parties
The public may make regulations for
the preservation Of its property
All of which means that if you are
n citizen of Virginia and you build
yourself pond and stock it with a
purchased or donated supply, you
cannot take the fish therefrom dur
ing closed seasons without violating
the State law.
Assistant Attorney General Gar
nett's perusal OF wen night all Of
the books In the law library Wedaes-
aay was not without purpose. He
didn't cry. Eureka" when the Nir-
einian man called around TO see him
yesterday, but he was quick to dis
play the results of his legal search
The attorney general received some
few days ago a letter from John c.
EasIey, of Richmond, asking for an
opinion as to whether or not a private
individual had the right 10 take fish
from his private pond at any season
of the year. In the absence of Mr..
Pollard. the assistant attorney gem
eral undertook to ascertain the law
on the subject In hts letter TO Mr.,
Easley yesterday, he said:
Section 210S of the code, as
amended by acts of 1912. makes 1t
unlawful to catch certain fish between
certain periods of the year; or, in
other words. defines what is closed
season for the capture Of mountain
or brook trout, river or pond bass
etc.
although a man has an exclusive
fishery on his own land. he does not
own the fish until he has reduced
them to his possession, so that his
fishery rights amount to no more
than lawful means upon his land for
the capture of the fish. AS long as
they remain free in the water, they
ale the property of the public. or
common right. and the public may
make regulations for the preservation
of its property The individual has
no right to exercise wasteful or de-
structive methods of fishing. or to
destroy fish at a time when they are
not fit food, or their preservation is
necessary to the application of the
species OF the regulation of any
of these matters by the public, he has
no ground Of complaint"
Mr., Garnett cited a number of
authorities from other States. as well
as Virginia, and concluded his letter
with this opinion:
From the above and many other
authorities, l would conclude that
the statute applies to the owners OF
private ponds and that 1t is unlawful
in Virginia for the owners of private
ponds to fish therein for club, trout,
etc, during the closed season.
