Excerpt from Report of Board of Illinois State Fish Commissioners: To the Governor of Illinois; September 30, 1888

We beg leave to submit herewith our report as Board of State Fish Commissioners, from October 1, 1886, to September 30, 1888:

Since our last report we have encountered adverse, as well as favorable seasons, for our work. The high water early in 1887, and continued high water in 1888, has afforded opportunity for demonstrating the flexibility of our methods, as well as the fact that nature has provided ample means for re-stocking our streams with fishes indigenous to them, without recourse to artificial means of re-production. In spring of 1887, the water was out of river banks early, and as it quickly receded, left only the spawn to hatch. As a consequence the pools, lakes, etc., were filled with young fry only, when our work of taking them for distribution commenced. But few mature fishes were found in the shallow waters. The spring of 1888 opened with plenty of rain, and unusually high water, not only in the rivers, but in all the streams throughout the State. The water in the Mississippi river going over its banks early in the spring, and reaching the highest point, but one, known in forty years. An immense area of land was, of course, submerged, and, as a consequence, every slough and hole along its banks were filled, and the fishes, seeking spawning grounds, filled them to repletion.

With this immense quantity of the product of the overflowed ponds available, we desired to utilize as nearly as possible the supply, having had some correspondence with the United States Commissioner on the subject of native fish distribution, and knowing him to be greatly interested in the work, we applied to him for assistance, lie responded by placing at our disposal the use of two of the United States Fish Commission cars, with their respective crews, for the purpose of making our distribution.
