Resources unit study signals consolidation in Ohio
A study proposal ahead of the General Assembly foresees creating a Division of Outdoor Recreation within the Department of Natural Resources and possibly replacing director Herbert Eagen. The Park Admission Fees, Marine Fuel Tax and Water Management Study Committee led by Rep. Robert E. Holmes also favors a rotary fund to finance conservancy districts and allows issuance of revenue bonds. Rumors say a merger of Parks, Watercraft and Wildlife divisions could form the new division, though wildlife finances may block that. The report urges long term land acquisitions for parks, wildlife, forestry, and water projects, and Governor elect Rhodes favors shifting commercial fishing regulation to the Ohio Wildlife Council.

Flies only regulation found ineffective for brook trout
A 13 year Michigan study by D S Shetter and G R Alexander finds flies only rules fail as a management tool for brook trout on Hunt Creek. Hardware lures are not more lethal, and only a higher catch per hour occurred for the few anglers under the rule. Biologists say wild fish cannot be stockpiled beyond environment limits.
