2008 Washington Triploid Trout DistributionApproved by the Fish & Wildlife Commission
February 15, 2008Ninety-five lakes throughout the state will be stocked with triploid trout weighing an average 1-½ pounds each. These trout, purchased by WDFW from a contracted private grower, are sterile rainbows that are voracious feeders and have the potential to grow to trophy size if not harvested the first season after stocking, and if sufficient forage is easily available.
A total of 34,237 triploid trout will be stocked in April, and as close to the April 26 lowland lakes fishing season opener as possible. Later in May, thirty-five lakes will receive additional triploid plants, bringing the total stocking of triploids to 42,196 fish.
The list of lakes proposed for stocking is similar to the 2005-06 approved plans, with changes to enhance fishing opportunities, and to augment lakes that were rehabilitated last fall. Overall, the 2008 plan calls for fewer triploids to be planted into 9 fewer lakes compared to last year, because the additional funding provided to supplement the base “Triploid Trout Budget” in 2007 is not available this year. There are approximately 72,823 fewer fish in the 2008 plan compared to last year.
