Brood stocks or brood fish are a group of mature fish used in aquaculture for breeding purposes. Your Wyoming Game and Fish Department operates ten hatcheries / rearing stations and the people who work at these facilities  manage 10 captive brood stocks. Here is what we manage:

• Snake River Cutthroat at the Auburn Hatchery
• Fall Rainbow at the Boulder Rearing Station
• Colorado River Cutthroat at the Daniel Hatchery
• Golden Trout, Brown Trout, Eagle Lake Rainbow, Brook Trout and Lake Trout at the Story Hatchery
• Yellowstone Cutthroat at the Ten Sleep Hatchery
• Bear River Cutthroat at the Wigwam Rearing Station
