This paper traces very briefly the history of the smallmouth black bass in the State of California from the time of its introduction to the present day. The Central Valleys Bass Hatchery, recently constructed near Sacramento, California, is described. Methods and results of the propagation of smallmouth black bass are reviewed in an account of the operations in the 1938 season at this new California bass hatchery.
