The groups of splashing fish would remain at the surface for as long as several minutes. From their actions and the position of their bodies the bass w^ere spawning, if similarity to the actions of spawn- ing trout can be used as a criterion. The groups of bass were scattered along some three miles of the river, mainly in the shallower portions, although a few groups were out in deep water. It is of interest to note that when the bass are splashing about it is possible to approach within a very few feet of the groups. A No. 6 plankton net was hauled through a group of splashing fish, and eggs were picked up. The eggs of this haul were not water hardened^ < During their first hour after extrusion the eggs absorb water (water harden), creating a large perivitelline space. This acts as a shock absorbing medium to protect the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original California.
