      What is the reason that Bull Trout cannot be propogated in a hatchery? Has this been tried already?

        Read the article on the tigermuskie experiment in a high lake and was wondering if the intent is to rid the lake of the brook trout or to simply control the brook trout population? From the sounds of it they are leaning toward elimination of the brook trout. I definately think something needs to be done about stunted trout lakes (cutthroat & brook) and am excited to see how this experiment plays out, but I would hate to see the brook trout eliminated from the high lakes environment. In lakes where they aren’t stunted they make for a great trout fishery. The brook trout is a beautiful fish and also one of the tastiest of the trout. Not to mention for a trouter like me, the diversity is always a treat. I enjoy hiking to different lakes for different trout. Just a thought

          How effective are predator species such as Browns and Tigers at thinning out lakes overpopulated with brookies and cutts (never knew cutts created an overpop problem)?

            Made a trip up to Big Greider last monday 6/14/04. The fishing started off promising (11″ bow < 10min on the lake) but the continual drizzle combined with the swampy conditions made for an early departure (w/in 1hr after arriving). May try again this week. Also it looked like the snow level was around 3700 - 4000 ft elevation.

              “Thanx for the info all. Quick question. The bull trout in those other lakes mentioned, are they off limits as well?”
