Cecil I was hoping you would give your opinion. At what point do you think the temp would be a little more doable? 75 surface with some highs 60's 3 feet below? AP might be right in the am might acheive that.


Another question for Cecil. What temperature difference would it take for them NOT to go into shock? i.e. What temperature should the water in the haul truck be tempered to? 5� below pond temp? 3� below pond temp? Providing there is sufficient D.O. in the pond for the trout at time of stocking of course.
