Trout plants delayed again
Once again, the fickle finger of fate has derailed the local trout stocking program at our local lakes and ponds. The stockings had recently started up again after a nine-week hiatus to repair a faulty pump at the Kern River Hatchery when problems with the antiquated stocking truck killed the plants for an indefinite period. Hopefully, repairs should be completed within a few days and the program reinstated without the loss of too much time or fish.
