By the Ume this is published the turkey season win be
open and fishing should start getting better. Turkey
licenses can be purchased from any license selling agent
in the county this spring and you may as well get your
fishing license at the same time.
~'ne spring wild turkey season runs from April 20
through May 25 again thls year, Just as it has for the past six years. The
regulation allows for any male wild turkey or any wild turkey with a
visible beard to be harvested. Because the spring season is limited to
birds with a visible beard, the beard must be leR naturally attached to
the blrd In the field and when being transported. Shooting hdurs are
from daylight until dark. The bag limit is one spring turkey and one fall
turkey per hunter per year.
There is no set minimum age to legally hunt wild turkeys here in
Wyoming. The only requirement that may limit a young hunter is that
they must successfully pass a Hunter Safety class. When in the field all
hunters born after January I, 1988 must be able to exhibit their hunter
safety card, turkey license and conservation stamp. Hunters born
before 1966 only need the license and stamp.
Rifles using center fire cartridges, muzzle-loading rifles or rifles of .22
magnum caliber may be used to take wild turkeys. Shotguns not larger
than I 0 gauge may also be used to harvest these birds. Auto-loading
and pump shotguns must be plugged to admit no more than one shell
in the chamber and two in the magazine. Archery tackle may also be
used to hunt turkeys.
Be sure to sign, date and detach the turkey carcass coupon before
leaving the site of the kill. This too is part of a safe, successful and
enjoyable spring hunt.
Last week the guys from Story Hatchery brought over 320 catchable
rainbow trout for the Sundance Fairgrounds Pond and 400 of these
same fish for Medicine Lake. This week the Tiller Springs Hatchery near
Lovell will bring over 1,500 catchable rainbows for Cook Lake. By the
end of the month Story will do a repeat performance. In May both Story
and Tiller Hatcheries will stock these same ponds again. So the fishing
In the area should start to improve.
Because Cook Lake, Medicine Lake and Sundance Pond do not have
gravel bottoms, there is no way for these fishing holes to be self-
sustaining. The only way to keep trout in these waters is to stock them
several times each year. Rainbow trout are fairly easy to raise and also
easy to catch, so that is why we stock rainbows.
There Is a good, sustaining population of brook trout in Beaver Creek,
both above and below Cook Lake, and brown trout are exiremely prolific
In Sand Creek. Both of these creeks fulfill the habitat needs of the
respective trout populations. Keyhole Reservoir provides almost every-
thing that northern pike and walleye require to sustain those popula-
tions. As the run-offsubeides and the water warms up a little bit the fish
will get more active.
Spring has officially sprung, now it is time to go hunting and fishing,
but don't forget your license.

JeffMagers, civil englneer with
the Bureau of Reclamation's
Rapid City Field Office, an-
nounced today that storage in
Reclamation reservoirs in west-
ern South Dakota and eastern
Wyoming is above average at
all facilities.
Currently Keyhole Reservoir
is at 4098.75 with storage of
188,000 acre-feet. OnApri119,
a release of 150 to 200 cfs will
begin. This release is a result of
recent precipitation which has
brought the reservoir to Its
highest elevation since 1978.
This release will continue until
the reservoir is lowered six
inches and approximately
10,O00 acre-feet of storage is
available.
Inflows at Deerfield Reservoir
have continued at record levels
all winter.
Pactola Reservoir is full and
current releases are approxi-
mately 175 cfs. Inflows to
Pactola for the month of March
were the second highest in 42
years of record.
Storage at Belle Fourche Res-
ervoir is well above average for
this time of year. It is currently
at elevation 2973.8 R, approxi-
mately 15 Inches from full, and
will be filled prior to the begin-
ning of the Irrigation season.
