Local Sports Group Endorses 1955 Fishing Rules In Teton County
Forty six sportsmen and two guests met Friday night at the Legion club rooms to endorse recommendations for 1955 fishing regulations. The group kept the possession limit, urged closing the entire well and supply canal at Pishkun reservoir, and supported continuing Aarod lake open for winter fishing. They set Split Rock lake season from Sept 1 to May 1 and criticized the State Fish and Game Commission for staffing. They favored enlarging the Great Falls hatchery and nominated Carl Wedum for the State Fish and Game Commission from the district.
