Clipped Adipose On Bulls


Recommended Posts

Yesterday my father and I were fishing a creek that contains bulls, we got a bunch in all different sizes (so in therory they are from different years) and the vast majority had their adipose fins clipped.

I wasn't aware of hatchery stocked bulls in this area, does SRD clip adipose fins when doing bull surveys?

Maybe escaped bulls from Upper K if your creek was nearby? They also did clip the fins from a survey done in 2008 from Ram, North Saskatchewan and Bighorn rivers, and Fall Creek.
