Full Text

The Game and Inland Fish Commission of Maryland, realizing the difficulties attached to your sport of fishing this year because of the restriction on pleasure driving, has decided to place trout in a number of streams that are not considered as Class A trout streams.

The new streams selected have all been considered because of the accessibility to either car or bus lines. These streams will be stocked periodically throughout the open trout season. This policy will continue for the duration of the war. No trout will be stocked under 8 in. A large percentage of the trout stocked will be as large as 14 inches.
