REPORT OF STATE FISH WARDEN JOHN D. TREW, COLCHESTER. ILL. 



Was appointed May 9, 1890. I haA'e had notices regarding fish laws in- 

 serted in county papers, and have spoken to all whom I knew were inter- 

 ested in fish culture in regard to same. I have taken up no nets. Where 

 I laad reason to believe seining had been done all promised obedience. I 

 feel sure all seining has been stopped. I have made one arrest for failure 

 to put in ttshway. ISTo convictions, though I had one party arrested and 

 tried before justice of peace. Defendant chose a jury and was acquitted. 

 I have served seven fishway notices, to wit: Pleasant Yalley, Lamoine. 

 Birmingham, Brooklyn, Morell, Scott and Hoffman's Mills. Have put in 

 three tishways, to wit: Pleasant Yalley, Lamoine and Birmingham, the 

 latter mill situated in Schuyler county. There are four dams in Schuyler 

 county unprovided with flshways, viz: Brooklyn, Morell, Scott and Hoff- 

 man. 



In McDonough county the main stream is Crooked creek. Tributaries 

 are Spring creek, Troublesome creek and Camp crook. 



I believe there are few, if any. violations of tish laws. Crooked creek is 

 a fine stream for game fish. For want of tishways tish are becoming very 

 scarce. People of Schuyler county complain about there being no tishways 

 in dam across Illinois river at La Grange.

 conviction in each case. 



Have served no fishway notices. Have had oiu^ fishway put in, whicli 

 was done by the Lincoln' AVator Works Co. 



No dams in county unprovided with fish ways. 



The streams in our county are Salt crook, Kickapoo crook. Sugar croolc.
