These two advances center in our new mode of transpor­ tation—the use of a fleet of 10 tank trucks in the spring distribution of trout so vital to the success of the 1938 trout season. In relying upon these trucks for our planting program, we have assured, first, that the fish to be planted will arrive in perfect con­ dition at the water to be stocked owing to the constant supply of oxygen made avail­ able to them through use of centrifugal pumps. This factor alone is of basic importance. Under the old system of transportation by the "can method," there was always an element of uncertainty as to the welfare of the fish being carried. The truck might break down on the road with resultant serious injury to the trout being carried or even complete loss of the fish in the iced cans. On long hauls, this was a source of concern to the Commission and tacked a big "if" to the ultimate success of any trout run. Just how well those trout you hope to catch this spring ride in their new tank quarters, we would like you who have assisted in stocking fo attest. If they haven t been the liveliest bunch of fish you've released in a long time, we certainly would like to hear about it. Just as important as this "good condition on arrival" factor is the great saving accomplished by use of your new trucks. We have lopped off on mileage more than 100,000 miles in a year simply because we have been abe to carry three times more trout in these new "tanks" than could have been carried before in an 80 pail truck- load of fish I have already stressed at your meetings in-various sections of the state that we want you to be convinced that you are receiving as many as, or more, legal sized fish for your pet stream than you received under the old system of transporta­ tion, and have requested that you who aid in the stocking be the |udges of this state­ ment. The mileage saving factor has been made possible because, now, on a single run by one of these fine new trucks, from one to three complete plantings on streams (dependent, of course, on the size of the water or waters to be stocked) can be ac­ complished. Your Fish Commission expects, by the opening of the trout season on April 15, to have completed distribution of 1,000,000 legal size brook trout brown trout and ram- bow trout since the close of last trout season. Because of the highly satisfactory new system of distribution, these fish have been and will be in the pink of condition when released. That should be a mighty big factor in provid.ng sport of the finest during the coming season. While we expect this year's trout stocking to establish a new high the fishermen will play a vital role in the ultimate success of the coming season The Board has felt in all fairness to the vast majority of trout fishermen that the daily creel limit be cut from 15 to 10 trout over the 6 inch mark. Certainly, 10 trout in one day should satisfy any fisherman. It is hoped that many of our anglers interested in good fishing through­ out the season, will limit their catches to immediate needs for a good meal for the family. The idea of self-imposed limits has spread hke wildfire with thousands of our sportsmen, and is a most encouraging sign for the future of our trout fishing. May you enjoy the happiest day astream this year on opening day that you have had in many years. And, in closing, here's to a sportsman s creel. C. A.

  • West Branch Susquehanna River Watershed
    West Branch Susquehanna River Watershed State of the Watershed Report Completed by the West Branch Susquehanna River Task Force February 11, 2005 A Message From: Dr. Douglas J. Austen, Executive Director, Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission Michael DiBerardinis, Secretary, PA Department of Conservation and Natural Resources Kathleen A. McGinty, Secretary, PA Department of Environmental Protection Pennsylvania is renowned for its natural beauty, environmental resources and bounty of outdoor recreational opportunities that draw so many people to experience all that makes Penn’s Woods so grand. Northcentral Pennsylvania was once a major supplier of timber, coal and other raw goods that helped fuel an emerging nation. The resulting pollution problems in the watershed were a legacy our forefathers did not anticipate, but today the area is poised to again capitalize on its natural resources. Governor Edward G. Rendell launched the West Branch Susquehanna River Watershed Initiative to protect a 12-county area that boasts more than 2 million acres of public land and offers unlimited recreational and economic opportunities for Commonwealth residents and visitors. The initiative is designed to restore water quality, enhance recreational opportunities, ensure clean drinking water for residents, revitalize degraded habitat and preserve some of the most pristine open space in the state. The first assignment of the West Branch Susquehanna River Task Force was to prepare this “State of the Watershed Report” to identify problems facing the region, and the main stem and tributaries of the West Branch Susquehanna River. The report addresses current water quality concerns, particularly from abandoned mine lands in the watershed, and also presents an inventory of completed and proposed restoration-related projects by member agencies and watershed groups.
