I agree, I have caught very few hatchery fish in PA, but on average their avg stockies seems bigger and healthier than in NJ. Maybe it is because I am usually fishing known waterways, not sure.

I've stocked trout in NJ, Pa and NY. I find little or no difference between rainbows between NJ and Pa but My experience is that the brown trout stocked in NY to be far superior to any in the other States. It seems to me that those Browns fight harder, are more colorful, and show almost immediate in flies.

That's a beautiful looking fish, Mickey.
