How selective are fish (stocked trout) when it comes to breeding?
I've stocked 4 Rainbows and 4 Brookies in a stream near my house and want to know the odds of any of them breeding. Also I have not seen any of them and it is a small stream and I built a dam to hold more water...they could be hiding in a small tunnell or under brush or farther upstream. anyway how many fish do you need to stock for them to breed (on average)?...
Well you may need a few more than that to get a good spawn but if they stay there they will spawn. Trout hide in cover and are hard to see be sure when you make a hole / build a dam in your hole leave some big rocks and structure for them to hide in . You dont want a big open hole like a swimming pool.
Next if your using stocked trout and want them to stay you need to feed them . Buy some trout chow and be sure to feed them daily in the winter and every other day in hot weather.
I have had 50 plus trout in one hole and couldnt see but a few till I would throw a handful of chow in there then they would come out from all their hiding spots . You can learn watching and feeding them where trout stay in holes and what places they like to hide
If you dont feed them they will move on usually down stream if its a small creek. Big floods need to be your main worry they can wash out your dam and wash the fish away. But if the fish get settled in that area and are fed there they will stay there and will even come back if they do get washed away.
I would try stocking 10 fish of each variety the more the better , and if you feed them they will stay together and be healthy come spawning time. Rainbows spawn in the spring and brooks and browns spawn in the fall
A couple more tips , If you get a good population of fish started dont tell many people because sometimes the word gets passed around and your fish will be on somebodys dinner table. Also stocked trout are easier to feed and keep there than native fish . They are easier to get to eat chow and will stay in one place better.
I used to take a bucket with me fishing and bring the fish home to put in my creek. I caught a 24 inch native brown once and released him in my stretch of creek . I was about 3/4 of a mile downstream from where I caught him. Well I never saw the fish after I released him and couldnt get him to eat. About a week later I was fishing the same hole I caught him out of originially. To my surprise I caught him again. He had traveled all that distance in less than a week here is a pic of himhttp://i9.tinypic.com/4tk5ijb.jpg. I left him be after that . Big native trout like certain holes and apparently know exactly where those holes are and stay there.
Try a few stocked brown trout as well if you catch them . They are hardy and can tolerate warmer water than brooks or rainbows and grow fast . They are good breeders ,also they can interbreed with brook trout at times and I think that is called a tiger trout.
Good luck
