I would feel like BSD, that's for sure. To me, actually less gratifying than being in the middle of nowhere on my own or with a good friend. My thought process might not be normal though (generally, not only in this situation).

Most of them have hatcheries located right on the spring creek and they are stocked very frequently. I know a fellow from MO who told me about them and he said they are always crowded and there is not very much in the way of rising trout. These spring creeks are actually called "Trout Parks". Does that kind of give you an idea it isn't very natural?? http://www.missouritrout.com/

St. Paul, MN Posts: 376	he said they are always crowded and there is not very much in the way of rising trout. Isn't this true of most stocked fish? I even remember Kurt commenting on the board that wild steelhead have a greater propensity to rise in the water column than their hatchery brethren.

York & Starlight PA Posts: 2733	Hello Kyle, Isn't this true of most stocked fish? Not at all. If the stream in which hatchery fish are stocked has good numbers of aquatic insects once the hatchery fish become acclimated to that environment they will rise as freely as wild fish.
