Michael, I've been watching this post w/ great interest and as usual learning a lot from you and all those contributing.

we are just coming out of a major heat wave where highest daytime temps reached 114, and lowest night temps only to 80. I was considering trout here depending on if I could get a good producing well (supplemental water) above my pond, as they grow and survive just fine in unmanaged ponds another 1,000 feet up from me......but learning from you guys just how sensitive they are, seems like one slip and thats it. i'm thinkin it wont be realistic at my elevation, or perhaps i could do some put and take over the winter.

The best of luck to yours.


GSF are people too!
