It is no surprise on the one hand that NY is a key player in the history of fish culture. For those who think it's second to the West Coast or even less important than that are sadly mistaken. It is no wonder why the NY region is one of the top fisheries in the Western Hemisphere IMO.

You probably know this , but Seth Green was also Superintendent of Fisheries in NY  in the late 1800's.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

Seth Green was born on Ridge Rd. and Culver Rd. on the Irondequoit/Rochester ,NY  border and developed a  love for fish by his study of them in the Genesee river. The Caledonia fish hatchery raises all the 2 year old browns for the state of New york plus alot more.

Not "all" of the 2 year old trout for the state are raised at Caledonia, they do a great job...On a side note if you ever get a chance to fish the Mill creek that supplies water for Caledonia it has a strain of brown trout in it that have red spots on their dorsal fins, very rare and very cool...I will look for some of the pictures I have...
1,168,124 Trout caught and released since 1997...another good year for the trout...

i  think  we  need another  fishing  quiz    ;D



Here's your quiz:-

Who, after graduating from Harvard and pastored a Unitarian Church in New Hamphire, left the ministry presumably to pursue fish culture and built a hatchery in California for the federal government?

On what river was the hatchery to be built in California?

Who helped him with that task? What fish were they to send back east?

What Indian Tribe in California was a threat to their safety upon arriving there?

How many fish did they catch that had not already spawned to harvest their eggs? How many eggs did they get?

I will post the answers some time after 10 pm tonight. Time to decorate the tree with my daughter.

Livingston Stone

On what river was the hatchery to be built in California?

McCloud River........ 50 miles north of the railroad terminus at the town of Red Bluff. It was here that they struggled to identify another species that they sometimes caught..........the Indians called it "syoolott" namely the Rainbow Trout.

Who helped him with that task? His nephew Willard Perrin & Vermonter Myron Green

What fish were they to send back east? Pacific Salmon

What Indian Tribe in California was a threat to their safety upon arriving there? Wintu

How many fish did they catch that had not already spawned to harvest their eggs? Only 26

How many eggs did they get? but one bucket.........which was shipped via Wells Fargo back east and the fry from these were stocked in the Susquehanna River and never seen again.
