Trout Released From County Rearing Ponds Near Clare
Last weekend trout were planted from Clare County Federal rearing ponds eleven miles north of Clare on US-27. About 25 Rainbow and 100,000 Brook trout were distributed to streams in the county’s northern half, with State rearing ponds on US-10 near Farwell aiding the southern half. Lloyd Chamberlain oversaw the federal distribution. Carl Rushton directed the Clare County streams. Daniel Potter led the ponds’ summer work. Clubs and agencies including Clare Rod and Gun Club Harrison Hunting and Fishing Club Fire Warden’s department aided. The effort avoided overlap between State and Federal plantings and earned broad appreciation.
