Due te an unfortunate accident at Wiarton Hetchery lest Spring, a iLew lake trout were planted mn Hffiburton County during 1952 Accordlngly, all lake trout appli- cations have been carried forward for attention in 1953.

Few speckled trout were avail- able for distribution in Northum- berlând and Durham Counties during 1952 as the Codmington Trout Hatchery was and still is in a state o! being rebuilt. Until further notice, ne further appli- cations for speckled trout ta be planted in the waters o! North- umberland and Durhami are re- quired. The general public will alweys have the right te apply for fish to be planted in the public waters o! Ontario but the time te take stock o! such e situation bas now errived. Ail applicattons recciv- cd during the past few years are on file et the District Office in Lindsay. The distribution o! fish cach year is pretty much a dupli- cation o! the year previeus and each year many new and dupli- c;,tc applications arc receivcd for the same lakes and streams. A complete planting record o! every wetem arca in the District is on file et thc Lindsay office and each year's planting record is pre- parcd for publication as soon as the relevant information is aveul- able. The amount o! hatchery stock available for distribution is always limited and is planted et the discretion o! Departmental personnel in such areas and quentities as required. In most cases, ne further applications are necessary. Some agencies, particularly County and Township Ceuncils and some Fish and Game Associ- ations have alrcady questioned the prectice of filling eut fish alb- plication forms each year. It may seon be feasible te abandon this duplication o! paper work in the planting o! fish in our accessible ereas.
