Bubbling Ponds History<\/h2>\n\n\n\n


Bubbling Ponds originally produced trout until 1980 when trout production was moved entirely to Page Springs Hatchery. It also has historically produced sportfish such as channel catfish, bluegill, walleye, and largemouth bass. Starting in the mid-1980s, the hatchery began raising Colorado pikeminnow as well. Then, in the mid-1990s, the hatchery switched to primarily raising endangered razorback suckers under contract for the Bureau of Reclamation.<\/p>\n\n\n

Fish production history<\/h4>\n\n \n

In the mid 1990\u2019s, the hatchery switched to primarily raising endangered razorback suckers under contract for the Bureau of Reclamation. Since this time Bubbling Ponds Hatchery has consistently raised razorback suckers for the Bureau of Reclamation mitigation program as well as SRP\u2019s habitat conservation program. Other native fish species are currently being raised at the hatchery including roundtail chub and Gila topminnow. In addition, a limited number of Florida strain Largemouth Bass, and trout are reared at the facility.<\/p>\n\n \n
