Winter Fishing on Lakes Of
This Area to Terminate on
December 81.

Approximately 500 lakes in Mime
sofa were closed to all manner of win
ter fishing Saturday by j. O. Nelson
state superintendent of fish propaga-
ton.
Acting on the advice of sportSmen
and game wardenS, Nelson deviated
from the rules followed in previous
winters whereby some lakes were closed
only to spearing with angling permit
ted or vice versa.
The lakes in this county closed Satur-
day to all manner of winter fishing
were Ault, Armstrong, American Trout

Side, Spirit, Vermilion-all that part
known as Pike Bay, including Pike
River to the dam.
The winter fishing on other lakes OF
the state has been shortened to end
December 81, by the proclamation is
sued by Governor Benson last week
This drastic order means that there
will be no winter fishing of any kind
in the II, 900 lakes of the state after
the last of the year.
The order reduced the crappie and
muskellunge seasons by one month ano
lops two months from the wall-eyeG
pike, great northern pike and yellow
perch seasons. However, rough fish
may be taken all winter by spearine
and all year except during March anc
April.
Closing of lakes was recommended
by Conservation Commissioner Wenze
after reports showed sharp reduction
of female fish at spawning stations.
Superintendent Nelson stated that
the ratio of females to males Is one
to six and even one to ten in some

ers Who Secured Big
Game Licenses.

At least one deer was shot for every
two hunters who purchased big game
licenses this year, according to pre-
liminary estimates made last week by
the State Division of Game and Fish
Approximately 5000 deer hunting
licenses were sold this fall. Early
game reports received indicate that IS
per cent of the hunters reporting got
their deer, but it is estimated that
this figure will drop to about so per
cent by the time tabulations are COM
pleted.
For the regular deer season in 1886
10000 big game licenses were sold, with
an estimated 41,000 or SIS per cent of
the hunters successful
1t is estimated that approximately
100000 Minnesotans engaged in some
form of hunting this year. About 284,-
600 small and big game licenses were
sold in 1886. The drop this year is
largely accounted for by shortening the
pheasant season to three half days be-
cause of reported scarcity of the
birds.
Federal duck stamp sales showed a
big rise this year, with incomplete re-
ports from post Office authorities indi-
eating that total of 100000 may be
reached as compared to a 1886 total OF
$4,000.
Small game licenses dropped from
214,0O0 in 1886 to 165, 900 in 1887. The
pheasant kill decreased from an esti-
mated 1,324,0O0 in 1886 to 100000 in
1887, the latter figure being a rough
estimate only.

cases at spawning stations at Lake
vermilion, Bemidji and other points.
He further stated that formerly
there were about an equal number of
male and female fish at these stations
Winter fishing undoubtedly accounts
for good part of the reduction in the
number of female game fish,"
Continuing, Nelson said: 1--WE know
that large majority of game fish
caught in winter are females laden with
spawn, because females require more
food in winter and are therefore more
active"
