The brookies are not easy to catch either. this year no one has been able to get them on their hooks.

We are being very conservative with allowing catch and eat since we really have no idea how many we have and how big. Hopefully we can get them fed and breeding soon!

Any help or suggestions are welcome & thank you all for your replies!


I don't know if you can feed train adult trout, but if you can, feeding them a good quality floating fish food like Optimal Bass food will help them, I know a guy that raises Brookies from egg to LARGE adults and he uses Optimal feed to do it.
