For #TroutWeek, it’s only fitting that we highlight New York’s official state fish, the brook trout. Revered for their beauty and the unique fishing experience they provide, brook trout are highly respected by the anglers that choose to fish for them.
This is our Caledonia Fish Hatchery located in Livingston County. The Caledonia Hatchery just so happens to be the oldest hatchery in the Western Hemisphere. Seth Green who’s considered the “Father of Fish Culture” founded it in 1864. #TroutWeek
Wow! Completely overwhelmed by the response. We had over 200 entries. We've now notified the three winners. Thanks for participating and we hope you're all enjoying #TroutWeek!

Each year, DEC releases over one million pounds of fish into more than 1,200 public streams, rivers, lakes and ponds across the state. Stocking enhances recreational fishing and helps restore native species to waters they formerly occupied. #TroutWeek

How it started ➡️ How it’s going…
Spring trout stocking began in March and runs through early June with DEC staff stocking trout by hand, truck, barge, and air! #TroutWeek
In March at the Catskill Fish Hatchery, staff fin clipped two strains of brown trout: the Rome and the Romiskany strain. Although the same species, these strains have slight genetic differences that affect their life history traits, such as growth and spawning. #TroutWeek 🧵⤵️
The annual Naples Creek sampling event draws hundreds of people just north of the village of Naples at the Route 245 bridge. Sampling includes netting rainbow trout and recording the fish's length, weight, gender, and spawning condition. #TroutWeek
We had a great turnout for the annual rainbow trout sampling at Naples Creek in Ontario County. Each spring, adult rainbow trout leave Canandaigua Lake and swim up Naples Creek to reproduce. The creek's gravel bottom provides a great place for trout to deposit eggs. #TroutWeek
Our fisheries staff was so busy prepping for #TroutWeek, the social media team decided to help them label this trout morphology graphic.
I think we did a pretty good job.
Within the field of biology, morphology is the study of the shapes and arrangement of parts of organisms.

For today in #TroutWeek, we head to the Snake River Basin with @Fly_Lords to learn more about why these dams must come out to recover wild salmon and steelhead, local communities, and entire cultures, and spend time with the people that are moving the needle every day.
