Well that is sad news indeed.

I did a tour last year of the fish Daniels, WY hatchery and there at least, everything is indoors, not sure if it was designed to prevent the spread of furunculosis or not. Several years ago I toured the hatchery in Spearfish, SD and there all the fish runs are outside.

Isn't the pequest hatchery the only that raises trout stocked in NJ every year? The Musky hatchery only raises fish for private waters i thought.
