Sportsmen's Notes A special meeting of the McCullom Lake Sportsmen's watershed and controlled shooting area committees met on the Gene Johnson property Sunday, ^ug. 5. Both committees have pledged themselves toward t lying to open two small creeks running through Ringwood road for fresh water entrance into the lake. The plan Is to make a flowage that will empty through the opening at Holly's property, and then into the river, so Ihere will be a possibility of having a constant supply of fresh water to improve swimming, as well 0as fishing. Donations given from the heart of nil interested parties will be used to defray the cost of spraying all the weeds along the entire creek area. The spray job will be good for two years. The number of men enrolled for the controlled shooling in the fall is growing and other members interested are asked to 4-ontact Gene Johnson, president >f the club. Bulletins advertising the coming fishing rodeo will be^ distributed in the near future. Keep ALL the fish caught, regardless of size, as the lake is over-populated with stunted fish. In the near future, the lake will be restocked with fingerlings that, if given a good chance to survive in fresh water, will grow ^ito large game fish. Don't throw any fish back into the lake!
