Fish For Life 0 Report post Posted April 29, 2014 Lovely looking spot. Like the trout. Are they stocked or wild? Thanks!! There about as wild a trout as you can get. The stream that i am fishing in is a small mountain stream. No stocked fish in there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikechell 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2014 Isn't this fin the one that's supposed to be missing on any stocked fish? I am just asking, since I don't have trout where I am from. With this fin there, I think I've read, this is a wild trout. Right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Piker20 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2014 Not sure Mike, think some places clip some don't. I think if keeping stocked fish is promoted while releasing wild ones then they clip so we know Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clipping 4.1 million adipose fins ain't gonna happen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikechell 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2014 Ah, thanks for the clarifications, guys. Istripbuggers ... that last pic is a seriously off color mutation ... pretty!! Looks like it's got "Green", "Spotted" and "Red Breast" Sunfish genes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
