WOW...those are some fishies! (all of them!).

SO, probably a dumb question...but why do they call it a broodstock fish? Is it because that is the one they wanted at the hatchery? Did ya take it there so they could get the good "stuff" out of him? (might not have been an option...beats me.. )

All in all...those are awesome fish, and "someday" I hope to tie into one of those hogs....just for the battle...would hate to kill such a beautiful fish, unless the hatchery needed him/her.(or is that not realistic?)
