It is necessary foi- the maintenance of the run of llic steelhead and sahnon in Eel IJivei-, that a permanent egg collecting station be esta])lislied where a sufficient number of steelhead and .salmon eggs can be collected annually to furnish the Ft. Seward Hatchery with a regular supply of eggs as well as enough of the steelhead trout to furnish a supply for some of our other stations. If the .station at Hranscombs is established and should prove to be too far u|) the river, another location farther down must be found, if the fishing conditions in Eel River are to be maintained. It is necessary that a sufficient number of fry be planted each season to insure a good run of Fig. 9. A truck load of trout fry for planting in the siirains of 'J'nnity County.

A total of 1,757,000 trout fry have been distributed in the streams of the northwest coast counties, ITumboldt, Mendocino and Trinity, during the seasons of 1918 and 1019, from the Ft. Seward hatchery. The fry were given a very wide distribution, most of them being steel- heacLs and being planted in the Eel River and tributaries. The Mad River section was also given a fine lot of fry and fishing is reported to be excellent in that district as a result of the continued stocking of the streams. During the biennial period two million Chinook Salmon were reared a1 the Fort Seward Hatchery and planted in Eel River, Mad River and the tributaries of Humboldt Please note that these images are extracted from scann
