INGENIOUS FISH TRAP IN NORTH STONINGTON BROOK The extent to which some individuals will g0 in circumventing the fish and game statutes of the state, is evidenced n a degree by the fish trap, now in the possession of County Game Warden Robert B. Chappell, which was found on May 7 in the Lambert Mountain brook of North Stoningten by Deputy W. R. Palmer of Griswold, and turned over to the New London official. The trap is a cylindrical affair, about 24 nches long, by_approximately~13 inches in dia- meter, “@itd bears every earmark of the basket maker's artistry. The _contrivance, which is woven from tender” saplings, in basket fashion, with a concave conical enclosure at one.end, with a small aperture large emough to permit passage of the fish, is arranged after the fashion of metal rat traps In commion use. The open end of the de- vige is covered when in use by a board. while boards are fitted on_either side, running to the respective shores of the stream in phich the trap is placed, pre- senting passage of the fish up or down the brook. Once the trout have gotten into the contraption, they are unable to get out, and the ilegal operator of the device would call at safe periods and removye the unlawful toll of trout. Undoubtedly, as the county warden suggested, the devico was the product of alien hands, made by-a resident of the community, skilled in basketry, and at the expense of considerable time and exercise of real talent in fashioning it from native bark-covered boughs, so as to attract little attention when sup- merged in a convenient brook. The whole contrivance wis capable of being skilfully camouffaged, with the 3id of a little brush, so as to make its detee- tion a matter of close inspection. Need- less to say, the several deputies In neighboring towns are keeping a stritt vigil of that particular section. which, by the way, has furnished the fish and game authorities consfleradle trouble Quring the past few months. / iter Martley, Company, A.
