Fish stocking underway in Panhandle waters |
June 7, 2017 |
Fish and Game stock over 22,000,000 fish
from its resident hatcheries into lowland
lakes, reservoirs and mountain lakes every
year.
Stocked fish include fry, fingerlings, and
catchable sized fish from 18 species and 16
strains. Most of the resident hatchery fish
released are rainbow trout and kokanee
salmon. Other fish raised and planted by
Idaho’s hatcheries include walleye, channel
catfish, and tiger muskie.
Hatchery raised trout, especially the
catchable size of 10-12 inches, are stocked
where they are likely to be caught. Here is
