Just found out last night that they have been stocking the Cohos for the last week. Correct me if I am wrong someone, but Rochester got 20,000 the Salmon River got 40,000 and I believe they stocked some at Sodus. I'm guessing this was one of those fish. Funny how they are still little bad azzes when they are little!

[Tim Bromund]

yes, they stock coho as fall fingerlings and let them winter over in the stream to smolt the following spring. Saves the hatchery 6 months of holding the coho and doesn't seem to have a significant negative impact on survival. They stock the coho every year about this time in October. Sometimes makes perch fishing tough in the harbor at Olcott as the coho's sit a little higher in the water than the perch and you sometimes can't get your bait down through the school of aggressive coho to get to the perch.
