Sure would be fun to be around when they released some of those. I Imagine those are just broodstock though. My mom caugt a big rainbow that had practically no tail fin from rubbing on the concrete it's whole life. It must have been retired.

I don't think they let you fish the brood stock at The Boulder Rearing Station. That is some dirty hatchery water in the pics. Those are the fall spawning rainbow aren't they.

I don't know why, but I always enjoy stopping and looking at the big hatchery pets too. Those are some pretty good fish. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

Did you get a chance to fish any of the rivers and streams over there on your days off?
