FISHERMEN ATTENTION


Mr. McCoy's letter of last week, from
r. G. Parvin, State Game and Fish
Commissioner, regarding the stocking
OF thu Gunnison river with Loch Lev
en- trout, seems to be one worth oul
while to investigate and one which
is Of great interest to all true sports
men:
Denver, Colo, March l, 1920.
Mr.. G. W. Mccoy,
Gunnison, Colorado.
Dear Sir:
| am much interested in your let
ter of the Goth ult., and / agree with
you in the main as to the value of
the Loeb Leven trout However, /
should favor special efforts in the
propagation of this species in waters
not inhabited to any great extent by
other trout, rather than in so inn
portant a Rainbow stream as the
Gunnison. This department has for
years spent it's utmost efforts to make
the Gunnison a Rainbow stream, and
it would be great disappointment
to the sportsmen of the state if we
should suddenly turn this stream
over to the Loeb Leven.
For some reason unknown to me
the Loch Leven is in disfavor, and if
| were to undertake its propagation
in the public waters of Colorado l
should feel compelled to do SO in
some water system from which they
could not migrate to the present
principal trout streams of the state.
l have contemplated doing this, and
hope to take the initial steps within
another year at most Naturally ii
will be on a small scale at first There
are certain rather segregated streams
in the state where the experiment
might well be tried. The Loch Leven
is undoubtedly as much of n cannibal
as any other trout, and being more
gross feeder, larger and fully as ac-
tive, would practically usurp what
ever waters he were planted in, es-
pecially where restocking by the state
gave him the same advantage the
other species now have.
l do not understand that the Rain
bow is migratory fish to any great
extent. Naturally they move down
the stream in the winter, but they dc
not leave it. A stream once a Rain
bow stream is ALWAYS a Rainbow
mated, and, as the Native and Brook
trout may be eliminated from the
consideration as contenders against
the Loch Leven, the question is as tt
the desirability of pitting the Rain
bows against the larger and more
aggressive Loch Levens Would /
not be better to keep the Loch Leven'
out of streams already heavil.
stocked with Rainbows?
Under my plan of an EXTENSIVE
system of retaining ponds for vouns
fry feel sure the streams will holt
their own even against the unprece
dented advantages the fishermen nov
have in the way of transportation ia
cilities and accommodations. ! hav
taken all this into account and ex
pect to meet the demand. We hav
negotiations now under way wit
other states to secure new blood AM

bow species more vigorous and wit

have. and this, with the use OF tn
