Wyoming summer fishing and the Yellowstone Park. By Ralph E. Clark. Outing, 

 vol. LII, no. 4, Tuly, 1908, p. 508-511. 



Fly fishing in wonderland. By Klahowya (0. P. Barnes). 1910. 56 p. 



The following annotated up-to-date list of fishing localities is mainly 

 derived from information kindly furnished by Col. L. M. Brett, United 

 States Army, the present acting superintendent of the park, to which 

 a few notes from the previously mentioned writers have been added: 



YELLOWSTONE LAKE. 



The lake abounds in native trout eager for the fly or other lure. 

 There appears to be no other species in the lake, the landlocked salmon 

 planted in 1908 and 1909 not having been seen since. Rainbow trout 

 planted at the same time in some of the affluents have shown no 

 evidence of establishment. 



YELLOWSTONE RIVER ABOVE THE FALLS. 



Native blackapotted trout are plentiful. Whitefish planted in 1 889 

 and in 1890 have not been reported. 



Cascade Creek. Native trout are abundant. 



YELLOWSTONE RIVER AND BRANCHES BELOW THE FALLS. 



Native trout are plentiful and whitefish are native to the waters 

 but seldom found higher up than Crevice Gulch. 



Tower Creek. The waters above the falls were barren previously to 

 the planting of eastern brook, rainbow, and blackspotted trouts, and 

 these have as yet shown no evidence of establishment. 



Geode Creek. Rainbow trout planted in 1909. 



Blacktail Deer Creek. Native trout are abundant and eastern brook 

 trout were planted in 1912, 1913, and 1914. 



GARDINER RIVER AND BRANCHES. 



Tlie main stream. Loch Leven trout are found in abundance, prob- 

 ably planted by mistake. Native trout and whitefish are common. 



East Fork or Lava Creek. Blackspotted and eastern brook trouts 

 were introduced and both are abundant. Rainbow trout were also 

 introduced but are not much, if at all, in evidence. 



Tlie main stream above the falls. This section of the river, together 

 with its branches, the Obsidian, Indian, Panther, and Straight Creeks, 

 also Grizzly Lake and Glen Creek, above the falls, were previously 

 barren waters in which eastern brook trout are now abundant. 



GIBBON RIVER ABOVE FALLS AND GREBE LAKE. 



Rainbow and eastern brook trouts are now abundant in these pre- 

 viously barren waters. Blackspotted trout were planted in Grebe 

 Lake in 1912, but the results are not yet known.
