Gene Johnson of West Shore Beach, who has been active in lake conservation since 1960, was present and gave a detailed progress report to date to the uninitiated. For those who have been following the column since 1960, you have read each report as V't became aVaflable. Gene Piotrowski was very active in this project, also.

Anglers According to the report on lake conservation made by Gene Johnston at the Cullom- Knoll meeting, there is not ENOUGH fishing of the lake! Seems aa though the more the lake is fished, the better the quality of the fish. Anglers are also instructed to KEEP all catch. Don't throw back the little ones. There is no limit on size in our lake, and throwing back is harmful. He also stated that bait (such as minnows) should not be put back into the lake. Bury it or give it to the cat, but1 not back in the lake! tie was most vehement on these points, and was quoting Illinois conservation officers. Lake conditions have improved tremendously s i n ce i the original conservation protect was started in 1960, but more is planned. The spillway will be built up to raise the lake level but will not interfere with low lying property. Maybe we can get every little fella in the area to bring a pole and fish, fish, fish!
