RESTRICTIONS OFF FOR
HOOK AND LINE FISHING
NO CLOSED SEASON THIS YEAR
COMMISSIONER TWITTY AD
VISES. NO SEINING WILL BE
PERMITTED
Atlanta, Ga.—Good news for hun
dreds of thousands of Georgia fish
ermen is found in the statement is
sued By Peter S. Twitty, Game and
Fish Commissioner, that he has in
structed all game wardens and depu
ties not to prosecute any person, for
fishing with hook and lijje at any
time during the present year.
Commissioner Twitty states that
the present law which prohibits "pll
fishing from April 15th to June Ist
was adopted at a time when no one
could anticipate the terrible finan
cial conditions that are now con
fronting the people of our state.
“We find ourselves,’’ he says, “in a
crisis where thousands of families
throughout Georgia will have little if
any meat to eat during the next few
months, unless they are given the
right and opportunity to take fish
from our streams. It is a duty of
the Game and Fish Department to
use every reasonable effort to con
serve the fish in our streams. How
ever, u conservation means anything
at all, it means beneficial use when
most needed, and there would cer
tainly be no sense in storing 1 away
food for tomorrow’s use when peo
ple are starving today.”
The commissioner issues the warn
ing, however, that “game wardens
have been admonished to redouble
their efforts to apprehend and prose
cute all persons using baskets, nets,
seines, dynamite or other unlawful
means of taking fish from our wa
ters. I feel confident,” the Commis
sioner states, “that the hook and line
fishermen of Georgia will appreciate
the concession we are making in this
emergency and that they will co-op
erate with us better than ever in
discouraging and reporting- illegal
methods of fishing.” The instruction
