While collecting eggs this year Marklevitz says most of the fish they handled were 12 to 14 pounders. He also says 80 per cent of them were fin clipped – meaning they were fish from the hatchery. Marklevitz says that’s a great success rate for the hatchery and means they are having a direct impact on the rainbow trout population in Colpoy’s Bay. Since 1968, the BPSA hatchery has stocked nearly 4 million fish.
