The rainbow trout catch fluctuated considerably during this period (Figure 2). The brook trout catch declined steadily after 1954. The mean weights of brook and rainbow trout taken from 1955 through 1959 were almost identical, being pound for the rainbows and pound for the brooks. Although their mean size was compar- able with that of the rainbows, brook trout attained a greater maximum size in Castle Lake during this period. For example, during 1959 only one rainbow over 11 inches () was caught, whereas 12 brooks larger 4000 3000 X <I o cr Hi OD z 2000 1000. 1952 1953 1954 1955 1956 YEAR 957 1958 1959 FIGURE 2.
