Trout Stocked In Winter Have Better Chance Of Survival
PARK COUNTY, Colo. (CBS4)- Trout once again fill 11 Mile Reservoir in Park County after Colorado Parks and Wildlife stocked the water.
Wildlife officials stock the reservoir with more than 100,000 trout every winter. They do it when it is cold to give the fish a fighting chance against natural predators.
The 10-inch trout are from local hatcheries and usually grow to about 14 inches long.
