Report of the Department of Fisheries of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, From December 1, 1906, to November 30, 1907 (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Excerpt from Report of the Department of Fisheries of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, From December 1, 1906, to November 30, 1907
The lake trout eggs, cut throat trout eggs and a portion of the rainbow trout eggs were contributed by the United States. The white fish, lake herring and wall-eyed pike eggs were gathered by the United States Bureau of Fisheries in Lake Erie under an agree ment, Pennsylvania paying its share of the cost. This agreement has been in force for a number of years and was brought about by Commissioner Meehan during the existence of the Fish Commission. A number of years ago Pennsylvania, Ohio and the United States gathered the eggs of these species of fish each through their own subordinates.
The result was confusion, unfortunate rivalry and high priced eggs. In order to put an end to these undesirable conditions, the Commissioner suggested to United States Commissioner Bowers that the United States Bureau take in hand the sole work of gather. Ing the eggs in Ohio waters where the Spawning fish were most abundant; that the eggs be divided among the hatcheries of Penn sylvania, Ohio and the United States on Lake Erie in proportion to their capacity and that the two states and the United States pay the pro rata cost of gathering. This was agreed to and as it worked well the agreement has been continued yearly since.
