North Carolina hatcheries expected to raise more game fish
Raleigh March 24 The state Department of Conservation and Development reports a likely 20 percent rise in game fish output this year. Assistant Director J B Hargett says 1929 hatcheries produced about 3.5 million fry and 1930 projections range from 4.0 to 4.5 million based on current eggs and later spawning. Private interest spurred over 100 pond rearings last year and more are expected. Fry distribution to rear ponds began this month as crowding hits the Marion rainbow trout hatchery.
