lost another one today due to the fungus and they weren't eatting...the last one is recovering and there is less fungus, it is almost all gone...it also started eatting again so i think it will make it...

bad batch of feeders was the cause...i qt'd them, they looked good...fed 2 times then i saw some with alittle fungus...all the feeders died from the fungus...one stickleback and the last trout are the last survivors of the outbreak...

dude i give it to you,I' get two of these bad boys but the whole chiller thing gets me.
Back in school my marine envo. class had hand raised form 3in fish two adult m&f about 10-11 in mark and where able to "breed" with success."breed" meaning the female was "forced" to have the egg spit out the eggs and the male was "force" to release his sperm.about only nine fry survive sadly there about 2 yrs of age last i seen of the fry there kicking still ,the mom and pops die during summer break 09 when the school lost power.
 
i got a male...i may try to get a hen for some experimenting...i got some row from steelheading and i feed it to him...i first dropped in about 50 eggs and now there is maybe 15-20 eggs left...

mext trip up steelheading...i may milk some hens and bucks to try to get some fry bows...i may be able to sell them later as they wouldn't be wild caught fish...i will have to call the dnr and find out...

also i saw my stickleback again so he didn't eat it is was just hiding real well...
