Fishing policy changes and stocking efforts in Warren County
The fish commission removed five Warren county trout streams from approval for poor conditions. Four thousand muskie fingerlings were stocked in four area lakes including Tionesta. Trials compare stocking methods by tagging hatchery trout or clipping fins. Four Mile creek and Salmon run in Forest county host 1957 experiments with jaw tagging and fin clipping. Anglers were surveyed on opening days. 551 stocked vs 76 not stocked last year. Large bass removals occurred from Sanctuary and Union City waters to improve fisheries. New trout fishing areas added on Big Brokenstraw, Tionesta, and Thompson run. Chapman dam now a trout lake with rainbow adults stocked and fall fingerlings planned. Jaw tagged bass migrations noted from Lake LeBeouf down to French Creek and the Allegheny.
