SALT LAKE CITY – The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources is showing video of lakes being stocked with fish by airplane.
“This week we stocked around 200 high-elevation lakes across the state,” it said in a Facebook post on Friday. “These lakes are not accessible by vehicle and other means of stocking.”
The agency said since the fish are 1 to 3 inches long, they “flutter down slowly to the water.” Aerial fish stocking has been used in the Beehive State since the mid-1950s. It’s also a method used in Idaho.
