CM, I knw that lots of the surplus steelies are going to the foodbanks and are not being sold to the buyer or buried. And , of course, some are put in the lakes. BY SRCT do you mean searun cutthroat? If so , the Eels Springs hatchery on the Skokomish have beem planting cutthroat in the lakes for many years. These are broodstock cutts who originally came from Hood Canal searun cutthroat. Not into lakes, of course, but the trout hatchery on the Cowlitz has a cutthroat program but, I might be wrong, but I think they plant them back into the Cowlitz.
