  Discover how Utah’s trout populations are set to thrive with the brand-new fish egg facility at Mantua Hatchery! This $5 million upgrade will boost egg production for rainbow and Bonneville cutthroat trout, ensuring healthier fish and stronger stocking efforts across the state. With cold water ideal for egg development, the Mantua Hatchery ships millions of eggs to warmer hatcheries, where they grow faster before being released into public waters. As the Loa Hatchery undergoes renovations, Utah’s hatchery system is evolving to meet the demands of a growing population—creating better fishing opportunities for anglers and outdoor enthusiasts.
