48 REPORT OF BOARD OF FISH AND GAME COMMISSIONERS. 
The first shipment was delivered to E. W. Hunt, at Reno, who car¬ 
ried four cans of the crappie and sunfish to Honey Lake, in Lassen 
County. 
The next shipment, yellow perch and crappie, was planted in Yera 
Lake, Nevada County, by Deputy Roy Sullaway. 
Deputies Geo. Neale and M. L. Cross received allotments of bream, 
sunfish and yellow perch at Sacramento, which were planted in Plumas 
Lake, Placer County, and in sloughs of Feather River, near Marysville; 
also Washington Lake and Brushy Lake, in Sacramento County. 
Deputy Roy B. Heacock landed a shipment of the three varieties in 
suitable waters around Stockton. 
Deputy Ernest Schaeffle and Frank McCrea took a large shipment 
(ten cans) representing all three varieties, and planted them success¬ 
fully in Clear Lake, Lake County. 
Deputy Andy D. Ferguson at Fresno received and planted yellow 
perch and sunfish in Kings River, Lower Kings, and San Joaquin 
rivers. 
Deputy A. C. Tibbet at Bakersfield received a shipment of sunfish 
and yellow perch, which were planted in the lower reaches of Kern 
River and Buena Vista Lake. Other shipments were planted in a 
small lake near Tehachapi, Kern County, in Russells Lake, Ventura 
County, and the remainder of the shipment was received by eight other 
applicants at points in Los Angeles, Riverside, and Orange counties. 
The superintendent of fish distribution, Mr. R. W. Requa, joined the 
Federal car at Truckee and superintended the distribution and allotment 
of the fish to the various applicants. 
It is yet too early to expect definite results, but some specimens of 
young bream and the blue-gilled sunfish have been received at our 
office, which were taken in waters of the Sacramento Valley, indicating 
that they are increasing. 
TRANSPLANTING ADULT TROUT IN THE SOUTHERN SIERRAS. 
During the past two years special attention has been given to stock¬ 
ing barren lakes and streams on both sides of the higher Sierras in 
Inyo, Tulare, Kern, and Fresno counties with adult fishes—golden, 
Kern River rainbow, and Loch Leven trout. The two last named varie¬ 
ties were taken from waters that had been stocked some years before 
with fry raised at our Sisson Hatchery and which had been transported 
as far inland as it could be done with safety. The golden and Kern 
River trout were taken from streams where they are abundant and 
placed in other waters barren of fish life in the same general locality. 
The sum of $1,250.00 was appropriated for the work, which enabled 
us to equip two pack trains with specially built cans, and other neces-
