It was about 7 days before the eggs developed to the "eyed" stage and 6 days to hatch, for about 13 days' total time from delivery to the hatchery to hatching.

Mr Hyatt began his career as a game warden in 1941 and served in this job until he became superintendent of the Price Game Farm where he developed techniques still being used on game farms. In 1959, Mr Hyatt was promoted to regional law enforcement and education officer where his unusual stability and maturity of judgment earned him the confidence and respect of all the men he worked with. Mr Hyatt has continued to demonstrate excellence in his work and considerable versatility in meeting the problems and heavy work load associated with a district covering nearly a third of the state. Utah's part of Flaming Gorge fish plants has been completed with the stocking of about one million finger-ling- s sized rainbow trout. In addition, the Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife is stocking the reservoir with nearly another one million fingerling trout. Wyom ing also plans to- - stoetr-aTadditional million. Following the plant in the reservoir, Utah Division of Fish and Game personnel stocked 225,000 fingerling sized rainbow trout in the Green River from the Flaming Gorge Dam downstream to the confluence of Red Creek. Plants in the reservoir were made from planting barges which are equipped with aerating systems and allow fishery workers to distribute the fish in all parts of the reservoir. The fish stocked in the river were first put into plastic bags at a rate of 4.5 pounds of fish per bag and new oxygen added before sealing the bag. Bags of fish were loaded on rubber rafts and these fish released into the river as the Fish and Game officers floated downstream in the rafts.
