One of the Wyoming Game & Fish Department’s more unique fish hatcheries is the Auburn Hatchery in western Wyoming. The Auburn hatchery produces a couple different species of fish, but it's actually located in Idaho. Snake River Cutthroat and Kokanee Salmon both come out of the Auburn location.
Idaho Sturgeon Farm Produces Caviar for US Market
Caviar, a delicacy usually associated with the sturgeon that swim in the Caspian Sea, is also being produced at an American sturgeon farm in the Western state of Idaho. Idaho caviar sells for $1 a gram at the farm, but sells for five times as much when it arrives at restaurants and stores. Lesia Bakalets traveled to the farm to see what it takes to raise sturgeons and collect their roe. Anna Rice narrates her story.

TWRA NEWS: Long-term funding for Federal Trout Hatcheries
NEW LONG-TERM FUNDING ANNOUNCED FOR FEDERAL
TROUT HATCHERY OPERATION, STOCKING PROGRAM
ERWIN, Tenn. --- The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency, the Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and Georgia Department of Natural Resources (GADNR) joined U.S. Senator Lamar Alexander and leaders from the Tennessee Valley Authority in an announcement to provide long-term funding for trout production and stocking in 13 TVA dam tailwaters and reservoirs in Tennessee and Georgia.
The announcement for the multi-agency agreement to the USFWS came in a press conference at the Erwin National Fish Hatchery on Monday (May 11). The agreement ensures popular trout stocking programs in the region will continue beyond 2016, when a temporary TVA funding agreement reached in 2013 is set to expire.
The agreement supports continued TVA reservoir and tailwater stocking of non-native trout that are raised at three federal fish hatcheries operated by the USFWS: Erwin National Fish Hatchery in Erwin, Tenn.; Dale Hollow National Fish Hatchery in Celina, Tenn., and Chattahoochee Forest National Fish Hatchery in Suches, Ga. The hatcheries produce 1.5 million trout annually for stocking.
“On behalf of all anglers who fish Tennessee waters, our agency appreciates Sen. Alexander’s leadership and the collaborative effort of the TVA, the USFWS, and the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, insuring the continuation of trout hatchery operations supplying our streams and tailwaters, said Ed Carter, TWRA Executive Director. “It gives me great comfort to know that the economic benefit to all Tennesseans and the fantastic angling opportunities these vital fisheries provide will continue.”
With the help of a working group of key stakeholders, the agencies developed a plan to collectively fund future trout hatchery operations at current levels in the following manner: TVA will provide base funding for the trout stocked; Fish and Wildlife Service will fund infrastructure and maintenance costs at the hatcheries, and the state agencies will take care of costs to distribute and monitor the fish.
“Nearly 900,000 Tennesseans and visitors buy fishing licenses each year,” Sen. Alexander said. “This means that the federal fish hatcheries in Erwin, Dale Hollow, and Georgia will continue to provide each year to Tennessee rivers and lakes more than 1 million fish that make out trout fishing some of the best in the country. TVA will support the hatcheries in the same way that the Army Corps of Engineers does when it replaces fish killed by dams on the Cumberland River and in the same was the Bonneville Power Administration supports fish on the Columbia and Snake rivers.”
The USFWS was directed by Congress and the Office of Management and Budget to seek reimbursement for its trout production at these and other hatcheries across the nation in this era of challenging federal budgets. The Corps of Engineers, the Bureau of Reclamation and the Bonneville Power Administration are also providing funds for stocking at their respective facilities.
The federal trout raised in Tennessee and Georgia are provided to TWRA and GADNR for stocking in the colder water of the reservoirs and tailwaters of the TVA dams. TVA has worked to improve water quality and enhance aquatic habitat by adding dissolved oxygen, foregoing hydroelectric generation and maintaining minimum water flows through its dams.
However, in most of the waters the trout cannot naturally reproduce, requiring regular stocking to maintain fishable populations. Through this hatchery funding agreement, trout will continue to be stocked for recreational fishing in reservoirs or tailwaters at the selected TVA dams in Tennessee and Georgia: Apalachia Dam on the Hiwassee River; Blue Ridge Dam on the Toccoa River; Boone Dam on the South Fork Holston River; Cherokee Dam on the Holston River; Ft. Patrick Henry Dam on the South Fork Holston River; Normandy Dam on the Duck River; Norris Dam on the Clinch River; Ocoee Dam No. 1 on the Ocoee River; South Holston Dam on the South Fork Holston River; Tellico Dam on the Little Tennessee River; Tims Ford Dam on the Elk River; Watauga Dam on the Watauga River; and Wilbur Dam on the Watauga River.
More than 256,000 anglers are estimated to fish for trout in Tennessee and Georgia waters each year, spending about $73 for every $1 invested in the hatchery program and producing an economic impact of about $45 million.

Sturgeon Fishing with an Interesting Ending
Just returned from an Association of Fish and Wildlife Association's Executive Committee retreat in Hells Canyon, Idaho where we were doing business to conserve our nation's fish and wildlife. Managed to fit in some white sturgeon fishing with other Fish and Wildlife State Directors who also attended. Would like to thank our host and guide, Virgil Moore, Director of Idaho Fish and Game Commission for lending his boat and expertise, and fellow Directors Dave Chanda from New Jersey, Glenn Normandeau from New Hampshire and Ed Boggess from Minnesota who shared the rod that allowed me, Director of the PA Fish and Boat Commission) to create this video. Special thanks to Ron Regan, Director of AFWA for setting up the trip and the Great white sturgeon which cooperated for the story which had a somewhat similar but much different ending than the movie which I used as background audio for the video. Thanks JAWS and Mr. Quint!
Quoting Edward Abbey who said it best for those of us who have dedicated our careers to conservation-- Do not burn yourselves out. Be as I am - a reluctant enthusiast... a part-time crusader, a half-hearted fanatic. Save the other half of yourselves and your lives for pleasure and adventure. It is not enough to fight for the land (and water and fish); it is even more important to enjoy it. WHILE YOU CAN. While it is still here. So get out there and hunt and fish and mess around with your friends, ramble out yonder and explore the forests, climb the mountains, bag the peaks, run the rivers, breathe deep of that yet sweet and lucid air, sit quietly for a while and contemplate the preciousness stillness, the lovely, mysterious, and awesome space......
Idaho: Minidoka Japanese Internment Camp
Minidoka National Historic Site is a National Historic Site in the western United States. It commemorates the more than 9,000 Japanese Americans who were imprisoned at the Minidoka War Relocation Center during the Second World War.
It all happened so quickly. The people of Japanese ancestry (Nikkei) on the West Coast of the United States had made lives for themselves in spite of discrimination, but on December 7, 1941, everything changed. After the attack on Pearl Harbor, panicked people believed every Japanese person could be a potential spy, ready and willing to assist in an invasion that was expected at any moment. Many political leaders, army officers, newspaper reporters, and ordinary people came to believe that everyone of Japanese ancestry, including American citizens, needed to be removed from the West Coast.
In February 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed an executive order that moved nearly 120,000 Japanese and Japanese Americans into 10 isolated war relocation centers in Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming. These temporary, tar paper-covered barracks, the guard towers, and most of the barbed-wire fences are gone now, but the people who spent years of their lives in the centers will never forget them. This is the story of one of those centers: Minidoka
The Minidoka War Relocation Center was in operation from 1942–45 and one of ten camps at which Japanese Americans, both citizens and resident aliens, were interned during World War II.
The Minidoka irrigation project shares its name with Minidoka County. The Minidoka name was applied to the Idaho relocation center in Jerome County, probably to avoid confusion with the Jerome War Relocation Center in Jerome, Arkansas. Construction by the Morrison-Knudsen Company began in 1942 on the camp, which received 10,000 internees by years' end. Many of the internees worked as farm labor, and later on the irrigation project and the construction of Anderson Ranch Dam, northeast of Mountain Home. The Reclamation Act of 1902 had racial exclusions on labor which were strictly adhered to until Congress changed the law in 1943. Population at the Minidoka camp declined to 8,500 at the end of 1943, and to 6,950 by the end of 1944. On February 10, 1946, the vacated camp was turned over to the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, which used the facilities to house returning war veterans.
The Minidoka War Relocation Center consisted of 36 blocks of housing. Each block contained 12 barracks (which themselves were divided into 6 separate living areas), laundry facilities, bathrooms, and a mess hall. Recreation Halls in each block were multi-use facilities that served as both worship and education centers. Minidoka had a high school, a junior high school and two elementary schools - Huntville and Stafford. The Minidoka War Relocation Center also included two dry cleaners, four general stores, a beauty shop, two barber shops, radio and watch repair stores as well as two fire stations.
The U.S. Army opened military service to Japanese-Americans in 1943. Enlistees from Minidoka accounted for 25% of total volunteers and Minidoka suffered more casualties, male and female, than any other camp. The Minidoka Internees created an Honor Roll to acknowledge the service of their fellow Japanese-Americans. Although the original was lost after the war, the Honor Roll was recreated by the Friends of Minidoka group in 2011 following a grant from the National Park Service.
The internment camp site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 10, 1979. A national monument was established in 2001 at the site by President Bill Clinton on January 17.

What To Do And Where To Eat In Twin Falls Idaho
What to do and where to eat in Twin Falls Idaho
Hey you guys! Thanks for joining me on another journey. I am still in Twin Falls, Idaho this week. Our Airbnb host Julie had told us about Thousand Springs State Park in Hagerman, Idaho. We were extremely impressed! We started off the day at Malad Gorge and were wowed with Devil's Washbowl. Then we went to Ritter Island. Our friendly Idaho State Parks & Recreation volunteer shared with us some of the island's history. We were fascinated to learn that the springs there are fed by an aquifer that is the size of Rhode Island, and it takes 200 years to come to the surface! So wild to think about. The Magic Valley Antique Tractor Pullers were there that day, volunteering to plow a five-acre plot for oat planting. (The Southern Idaho Draft Horse and Mule Association was going to plant the oats afterwards.) Some were offering free horse-drawn wagon rides, so we decided to climb aboard and explore the island that way. The waterfalls and springs are so crystal clear! And it was neat to watch the antique tractors plowing the field...it was like we'd traveled back in time for a bit. It is cool that they're doing their part to keep history alive. After taking in the rest of the island and Minnie Miller's farm by foot, we set off to check out Minidoka Internment Camp. The locals we had met while kayaking the Snake River (see my previous Twin Falls episode) had told us about this, and we were intrigued. (He teaches high school history, so he was enthusiastic about it.) The national historic site did not disappoint! The property is nestled among rolling farm fields, and its remnants were fascinating to learn about and check out. It was like we were at a Japan Ghost Town. We felt admiration for the Japanese citizens that had to live there, and those that served for the United States armed forces. Our wonderful Airbnb host Julie yet again came through for us in suggesting we eat dinner at Janitizio Family Mexican Restaurant. Their food was pretty tasty and their service was great! Overall, we were quite pleased with our adventure in Twin Falls, Idaho!

The Place You've Been Missing | Grandjean and the Sawtooth Lodge (Idaho)
We don’t believe in the idea that places should remain hidden. We believe that these gems should be shared for all who want to experience them. That being said I kind of hope this place remains the quiet retreat it is. This spot is one of Chad’s favorite in Idaho. I had never been, even though I have driven by it a hundred times on my way to Stanley. Stanley has always been my favorite place in Idaho, but it does get crowded in peak summer months. If only there was a place down the road from Stanley that was quieter during vacation season…
Welcome to Grandjean Idaho. Just 40 miles south of Stanley this small settlement underneath the Sawtooth Mountains has inexplicably been hidden from vacationers and Idaho residents alike. Settled over a hundred years ago by Emile Grandjean this place is right out of an Idaho history book. Six miles off Highway 21, nestled deep in a gorgeous valley, it’s the perfect place to get lost for a weekend.
The main attraction here is the Sawtooth Lodge, built in 1927 as a hunting lodge by Babe Hansen. Today the lodge serves as the central hub of all activity in Grandjean. If you don’t want to pitch a tent at the many sites along the Payette River, you can grab an old cabin or hook up your RV. Eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at the lodge and pick up essentials like ice and milkshakes. And this isn’t just hot dogs and hamburgers, it’s a fresh, farm to table menu with local ingredients. There’s a geo thermal pool, fire pits, nature walks, bike riding, guided horseback rides and much more to do at the lodge.
Finally, two miles away from the lodge is the Sacajawea hot springs, located right along the crystal clear Payette river. For me, natural hot springs are hit and miss. I’ve laid in black mud and gotten out of a few still smelling like sulfur. But these pools are pristine, no smell, beautiful sandy floors, the sound of the Payette singing in your ears. These hot springs quickly became one of my favorite in all of Idaho.
I think it’s important also to say that this video isn’t sponsored by the Sawtooth Lodge or anyone for that matter. We aren’t under any obligation to sell you on this place. We just truly dig Grandjean and the Sawtooth Lodge and think you will too. Thanks for watching and we’ll see you next time!
