>From what I have been told is that the WDFW planted Lenice with the Kamloops strain and they didn't take do to warm water. This was also the case in most if not all of the basin lakes. Also, the Idaho state Kamloops rainbow record was caught out of Pend Orielle Lake. I have only heard rumors about a "Gerrard rainbow", so I don't know anything about that strain, but I don't think its the same as the Kamloops but I could be wrong on that.
well thats all I know about that. tight lines Kent Dowd ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2001 3:17 PM Subject: Re: Gerrard Rainbow > Jeff, > > I would contact the Idaho Dept. of Fish and Game or the British Columbia DFW as they seem to be the regions with the highest number of Gerrard planted waters. > > In WA, there seems to be quite a bit of confusion regarding what is a Kamloops vs. a Gerrard. I have heard people mention both strains when talking about the fish in Lenice and other Basin lakes. I always was under the assumption that these were Kamloops and the only semi local waters with Gerrard are Pend Orielle, Kootenay River and Kootenay Lake. I could be wrong about this though so don't take that as fact! > > Mike >
