and a landlocked salmon. Jacklighting after dark produced only a 1/2-grown rolfish (here). mar. 15 foggy & steppin'. Night clear, calm. A half-dozen fisherman along stream at various times (yesterday was first day of the season). Anita's traps in bassel, cipres', etc. caught one also dead.

Higher up on the north-facing slope is a thin fringe of bare, ribbon-dried longi like that on the Argyle pass, caught a 13-inch brown trout at dusk, in chews in a small trap & bassel also * here it is clearly the last fringe of longi before on dead cipres', the longi acoboparada. mar. 16 night clear & calm, day sunny. My traps lie along the 50-year-old log fence in forest, lots of young cipres' and carline, caught 1 live also longi and 3 dead. Fish trucks in red. One more tree caught, still no song.

One steel trap and 4 MS didn't catch him. bassel, strawberry, trilemium, and yellow spike are all in bloom. In spite of the dry aspect of the
