Fishing and the Splake (7x9)

Udgivelsesdato: Aug 15, 1966

Science is developing new and better fish, the splake for instance, a product of the cross-breeding of the lake and speckled trout. At Maple, Ontario, biologists of the Department of Lands and Forests developed this new fish for seeding in Lakes Ontario and Huron. This program shows how they did it and how they hope to beat the vicious lamprey eel, which preys on the oridinary lake trout.
