Dennis,first off I don't know a trout from a catfish, well I really do, but I'm just not very well versed in fishing. When the granddkids were younger they liked to visit a fish hatchery in north east Iowa. They have peanut machines like at the old gas stations that you could put quarters in and get a handfull of fish food. The water would just boil with little fish when they tossed the food in.
On one occasion when we were there they were loading the fish transport trucks with bigger trout to be taken to the trout streams mostly locally. Anyhow I noticed quite a few cars and pickups that followed the trucks as they left the hatchery, so I ask one of the workers what that was about. He said those folks stop by often to check on when the fish will be taken out to streams then follow the fish trucks to the streams and line the banks fishing below where the fish are dumped.
That didn't seem fair to the fish to me, but the worker said that's why they haul them out is for someone to catch.

Frank.
