The Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks operates four fish hatcheries across the state located at Farlington, Meade, Milford, and Pratt. Each contributes in its own way to supply the varied needs of Kansas anglers. This system produces approximately 39.5 million fry, 3.5 million fingerling, and 385,000 intermediate fish for stocking in Kansas public waters annually.
Pratt Fish Hatchery manager, Brett Houdyshell, joins Lyndzee and Tanna to tell us about what goes on at Pratt's fish hatchery, how fry are artificially hatched, treated for disease, and readied for stocking or rearing ponds.
