Trout Season
Opens Officially

opened otliclally

 

 

 

The trout season
yesterday for 19:3.
fishermen invaded the haunts of the
tinny tribe. but with little success. The
extreme cold wrather apparently has
risultcd in making the trout Henson
liackuard. as few fish Were report-xil
cnmrht.

The streams in nu around Norwafiq
wertv whipped by the fishermen from
one end to the other. Not a finale
trout was reported caught. The
streams were. plenty low enough. but
the cold. fishermen say. has made the.
trout sluggish so that they refuse to
take the. bait. .\ party of fishermen
who journeyed to Canaan reported
poor luck.

Game Warden \‘thhur Smith is of.
the opinion that the trout streams will
not be. in good condition for another
Week or two by “hit-h time the
weather may he warmer. The thirty
thousand trout placed in the local
streams by the stale and national
government should make good fishing.
Mr. Smith says.

The wcnthcr yesterdav was so cold
that the tips of the lines became
coated with ice making it impossible
to do any casting. Several fishermen
were unfortunate to break poles.
which refused to give after becoming
coated with ice.

The only trout reported caught
yesterday were hooked by “Bob"
Aiken. well—known Norwalk sports-
man. "Bob" sacked six brook trout.
two of which weighed a pound and a

quarter each.
