For the past 60 years, the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources has stocked many of the state's high-mountain lakes from the air. Department staff drop thousands of tiny fish of different breeds from an airplane into secluded mountain lakes. Department staff say the method makes it possible to replenish the fish populations in difficult areas efficiently and inexpensively, with 40 to 60 lakes being populated a day. Many of these bodies of water cannot be reached by car or truck due to the lack of

Channel catfish were recently stocked into community fishing ponds in Utah. The fish averaged 12 inches in length, but — as you can see from the video — some were even longer! We stocked most of the catfish in ponds along the heavily populated Wasatch Front, but Little Montes Reservoir (just north of Roosevelt) and Leigh Hill Reservoir in Cedar City also received fish. When caught, channel catfish put up a big fight. They typically hug the bottom and pull for all they’re worth. Channel catfish a
