The Origin and History of the Trout Brood Stocks of the Washington Department of Game

Crawford BA. 1979. The Origin and History of the Trout Brood Stocks of the Washington Department of Game. Washington State Game Department. Olympia, WA

This is an attempt to narrate the various major events and accomplishments which led to the development of the trout stocks that have been and/or are presently cultured and planted into state waters. The evolution of fish culture and the constantly changing social and political climate in Washington helped to shape the course of brood stock development. The records are often sketchy or non-existent. Much of the information has been obtained from past and present employees of the Department of Game and the former Department of Fisheries and Game.
