The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources stocks the creek with 1,000 trout yearly. The trout are primarily rainbow and Bonneville cutthroat trout. As the higher elevations of the creek still are affected by early mining operations, there is a little carryover from each year’s stocking. [7]
Bonneville cutthroats are descended from cutthroat trout that once inhabited the Late Pleistocene-aged Lake Bonneville of Utah, eastern Nevada, and southern Idaho.Since the desiccation of Lake Bonneville into the Great Salt Lake, which is too salty for any life other than brine shrimp, Bonneville cutthroats have been isolated in smaller populations such as the headwaters of mountain creeks ...
For trout, stocking rates of 30 to 50 kg/m 3 are normal at the end of a rearing cycle, while for marine species, such as sea bass and sea bream, the achievable load is lower, between 15 and 20 kg/m 3. The total volume required for a raceway is calculated by dividing the total amount of fish in kg by the desired stocking rate in kg per m 3. [17]
Paralleling the Salt River is Wyoming Highway 89 leading north to Teton and Yellowstone National Park. The river is an excellent source for fly fishing for brook, rainbow, cutthroat and brown trout.
