[quote DKStroutfitter]I would love to see more of Utah's water with Kokanee in them.
Do you think that there is a chance of that happening?[/quote]
Hey Dale, sorry it has taken so long to get a reply but after sending several PMs to Drew C I gave up and ask another DNR guy for some info. I was given a couple of phone numbers and got a hold of Wes Pearce and found out there has been some talk about stocking kokes in Lost Creek but.... it sounds like there is a big chub problem that needs to be brought under control before they can stock kokanee. So... the DNR is planning on putting a slot limit on the cutts in LC, just like Strawberry, to help get the chub problem under control, then, if that works, they will stock kokes but, if it doesn't work they are talking about poisoning the lake and starting all over[unimpressed]. I guess it will be years before it happens but it sounds like there is a chance.
