No More Fish for Red Bluff Dam in New Mexico
State game warden Elliott Barker canceled a plan to stock Red Bluff lake with 150000 bass after the Red Bluff power district closed the lake and part of the Pecos river to fishing. Barker cited a message from Dexter Federal Hatchery foreman L. Carmen that if he agreed no more fish would be sent. Fishermen protested, petitions circulated in Artesia Carlsbad and Hobbs seeking stocking, and Artesia invited Barker to speak on Aug 16.
