Harvest of fish yields large Montana distribution
About 321,600 fish from the Miles City federal station were harvested and distributed to Montana waters and regional reservoirs. Of the total, 25 percent went to Montana, 75 percent to the bureau of fisheries, with the Custer Rod and Gun club assisting local planting. The operation, aided by NYA youths, aims to improve the Garberson lake station and expand warm water fish rearing in the region.
