Excerpt from Annual Report of the Commissioners of Inland Fisheries: Made to the General Assembly, at Its January Session, 1889 There is little doubt that, if it is not already, the Black Bass will be in the future the popular game fish of this country. Dr. Henshall speaks with no uncertain sound when he declares it is to be 'the best game fish of America.' Unlike the Brook Trout, the Black Bass is neither timid nor retiring in its habits; it is a fish of civilization and not of the forests and remote mountain streams; one finds it in the lakes and rivers, and even canals, which oat on their surface our vessels of commerce, and it is a fish accessible to the great body of anglers. The original distribution of the Black Bass we believe to have been only in large bodies of water, lakes and rivers, where they found wide range and an abundance of food. The disappointments attending the transplanting of this fish have come largely, if not entirely, from planting them in ponds and streams too small for them, and affording insufficient food.
