CHAPTEE II. 

 NATURAL AND ARTIFICIAL REDDS. 



Before dealing in deta.il with 1 the construction of ponds and 

 lakes, I propose to say something 1 about redds. By " redds " 



NATURAL SPAWNING GROUNDS. 



ia meant those parts of ai stream, where fish (fcr our present 

 purpose, trout) spawn. The redds in connection with 

 the artificial trout lake that I have illustrated as an 

 example of what ca'n be done by the formation of a fishery, 

 where previously only a brook existed, haive been artifi- 

 ficially formed also, and are really an after-part of the 

 work of making a fishing pool that shall be self-supporting.
