[black][size 4]500 yellow rainbow trout stocked in area lakes[/size][/black]

JEROME - Wanting to hook a unique fish or just looking for a weekend of fun, try catching one of the 500 yellow rainbow trout stocked last week in Dierkes or Crystal lakes.
Yellow rainbow trout are the same as their colorful cousins, but are basically albino - they lack skin colors that are normally found in rainbow trout.
"They are a novelty fish, and are big," said Doug Megargle, Fish and Game's Magic Valley Regional Fisheries manager. "The trout we stocked were donated by Idaho Trout Processor's from their broodstock program. They are big fish, weighing in at about four pounds each."
To give more anglers an opportunity to catch one of the fish, Fish and Game employees spread the fish out in the region, stocking 350 at Dierkes and 150 fish at Crystal lakes.

[black][size 4]steelies come to boise river[/size][/black]

Idaho Fish and Game crews will begin transporting adult steelhead to the Boise River on November 10.
Up to 1,000 steelhead may be released between Glenwood Bridge and Barber Park by Thanksgiving.
Anglers must have steelhead permits, available at license vendors and Fish and Game offices, but are not required to use barbless hooks as they are in the rest of the state's waters where wild fish may occur. Wild fish no longer return to the Boise River.
The steelhead released in the capitol city's waters are adults surplus to the needs of the Idaho Power Company owned and funded Oxbow Fish Hatchery and are trapped at Hells Canyon Dam on the Snake River.
