Show Trout egg take near 4 million The take of native trout eggs has reached more than the 3 million mark as the spawn taking stations at Sheep Creek Lake and Strawberry Reservoir were closed for the year. Spawning fish at Sheep Creek produced over 3 million eggs and the latest total from Strawberry station indicated a take of over 700,000 of the hard-to-get eggs. Fish raised from these eggs, plus a limited commercial purchase pur-chase will be ample to meet this year's stocking needs. Eggs are presently being incubated in-cubated at Department of Fish and Game hatcheries at White-rock, White-rock, Kamas, Springvlle and Scott Avenue. Initial stocking of these fish will be done as part of the annual an-nual airplane stocking of Utah high mountain lakes. |
