Lucky Peak koke plantings continue to drop

[kodiak1]

If you ever look at the planting info provided by the Idaho F & G, the number of planted kokanee continues to drop. In the last 4 years, the plantings have decreased from 300,000 to 150, 000 roughly. The head of the local fisheries program told me several years ago that they had perfected the number of koke fingerlings. If so, don't you wonder why they are decreasing it so dramatically. Any one out there know? Mike

I went ahead and emailed the F & G re this topic. I will share it with you when/if they respond. Mike

Mike, I wouldn't hold my breath, if I was you.

Possibly better "natural" recruitment, I know these fish are spawning successfully in Mores and Grimes Creeks, and below Arrowrock?
