Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from State of California Department of Natural Resources, Division of Fish and Game: Thirty-Fifth Biennial Report for the Years 1936-1938
Our records indicate that in spite of the individual catch per man of trout having declined somewhat, the total catch has been maintained to a remarkable degree. We must never lose sight of the fact that the amount of fish we produce annually is dependent upon the amount of water and food in our lakes and streams and regardless of the demand we of course can not exceed our capacity to produce.
Waterfowl particularly have shown a remarkable recovery under careful management. While this particular species of game is migra tory in nature and not solely a product of California, our State - owned and operated refuges have contributed much to the recovery of this game in numbers.
We regret to report to you that during the biennium we have suffered some very substantial losses in our hatcheries through food conditions which prevailed in the winter of 1937 and 1938. Cold Creek Hatchery located in Mendocino County was lost entirely. The Forest Home Hatchery in San Bernardino County. Which was a large institution supplying all of southern California, was damaged beyond repair. The Commission is now studying locations for the replacement of both of these hatcheries.
