As an avid fly fisherman and trout enthusiast, I am saddened at this news. Trout are truly the prettiest of all fish species IMO, and such a great sport fish. It is a difficult situation...we are broke, and when you look at the bigger picture, I can see where placing trout into non-native waters isn't all that important compared to a crashing economy. I will be devistated if the hatcheries close...and it will stink...but, I can always go back home to UT waters and catch all the trout I want. I just wish there was a way they could keep those hatcheries open and allow people in this region the joy of hooking into a trout! If it closes...my fellow trout enthusiasts are welcome to join me back in UT on some of my home trout waters!
