19 



Yellowstone Lake and Yellowstone River from its source to many 

 miles beyond the park are inhabited bv it. The abundance of trout 

 above the falls is remarkable. At almost any time as one passes 

 along fish are seen breaking water.

Gibbon River has no trout above the falls. In the Firehole River 

 trout occur naturally below the falls. At times near the junction 

 with the Madison there is very good fishing. 



In the Gardiner River trout are abundant from the foot of the falls 

 to its junction with the Yellowstone. Trout have not been seen above 

 Osprey Falls. 



In Soda Butte Creek trout are numerous until obstructed by falls 

 in the upper part. 



Hellroaring Creek is well stocked in the lower part. 



In Canyon Creek trout abound below the falls. 



It is stated on good authority that, notwithstanding the barrier 

 offered by Undine Falls, trout occur above in Lupine and Lava 

 Creeks. It appears that in 1889 trout obtained from Howard Creek, 

 Idaho, were planted in Lava Creek. However, it was subsequently 

 ascertained that trout had possible access to this locality from 

 Blacktail Deer Creek, which has no falls and was abundantly supplied 

 with trout. 



Trout are numerous in Heart Lake and, according to A. H. Dins- 

 more, in Lewis River below the falls.
