Muddy Water Hides Fish

High muddy water in reser-
walton water bodies is defeat
ing the hopes of nimrods, re-
ports being that trout fishing
since the opening of the season
has been fruitless. Good DAYS
are ahead, however. The trout
cannot be blamed if they are
not hungry right now. Eventual
ly, they'll start biting.
Fish planting by the State
Fish and Game Commission will
be done within a month, it is
understood from District Game
Warden Don Wright. This should
measurably replendish the trout
supply.
