Re: Trout Meeting
I am still waiting for them to explain why the musky hatchery that is about 10 miles away can raise multi species of trout and the state can only raise rainbows

Re: Trout Meeting
Don't waste your time, it was wrought with technical difficulties and when it wasn't it was just a giant unproductive bitch session.
Bottom line is they only want to raise rainbows, that's fine I rather like it that when I catch a brookie or brown I know it's probably a wild fish. Honestly I lost interest when the guide was bitching about the state not helping his business by not stocking browns. Dudes making a buck off of public waters where the fish stocked are paid for by the general publics licenses sales. Should be happy that they can guide for profit on a public domain. I wonder if I ran up on him while he was guiding a client if I'd get chased out of "his" water?

Re: Trout Meeting
Great point regarding the Musky Hatchery and the state raising only Rainbows.

Re: Trout Meeting
Assistant Director Barno, during the QA session at the end, provided a succinct reason why they are not rasining browns.
If my memory serves my right, Browns are more suspectible to furunculosis and if there is an outbreak there is a potential for introducing furunculosis into the water supply. It has something to do with the pequest water source being ground water where furunculosis is not present. In a surface water supply furunculosis is already present and not as much of a concern. They just released 2 of the presentations which are ho hum: Pequest Trout Hatchery Updates https://youtu.be/POViJvZmOfU Trout Stocking Allocation Presentation https://youtu.be/FWzfYJL8ASg

Re: Trout Meeting
Every hatchery has fernicolosis. It is a treatable disease and can be controlled. This is what happens when the powers to be come from non-game. Most of them don’t even hunt or fish.
