Members of the the BPSA were out in force on Sunday, March 7th when club volunteers came out to continue the spring stocking program at Colpoy's Creek and Gleason Brook (Oxenden)

Over 2,500 Rainbow Trout, from six to nine inches in length, were stocked using a 'bucket brigade' to ensure that the fish were safely released.

Volunteers weighed the fish at the hatchery and then later released them in steams.  The remainder of the trout will be released when they put on more in additional size.

Volunteers of all ages
