Thanks, yep that link works.

Would it be possible to find out if they were Triploid or natural. That seems to be a lot of spawning fish for a small reservoir like Causey.

I would be surprised if they planted anything other than triploid lake trout.

Is there such a thing as triploid Lake Trout? That's not an easy process if I understand it correctly. Triploid Rainbows have been produced, but not certain it works for all species.

The easier (cheaper) route is to stock hybrid Splake if breeding populations are a concern.

I don’t know about the economics of fish breeding but the lakers in Bear Lake are triploid. Personally I would rather eat splake.
