The construction of the Daniel Fish Hatchery was let to the Lincoln Lumber Company of Kemmerer, Wyoming to build a 40’ X 50’ building with a cement floor and foundation containing 28 rearing troughs and 1600’ of wooden pipeline to deliver 180gpm of spring water. The cost came in at $5,803.00, and the project was completed in April 1918.
Throughout the years, the Daniel Hatchery has undergone significant renovations to keep up with new technology in fish culture, with improvement and being expanded in 1966 and again in 1999. The Daniel Hatchery and is one of the oldest continuously operating hatcheries in the state.
With two springs supplying approximately 2 million gallons of water a day to the hatchery at an average temperature of 46° F, the Daniel facility performs the important function of incubating and rearing various species of trout which include; brook, brown, cutthroat, golden and lake trout as well as splake, tiger trout and kokanee salmon. The Daniel Fish Hatchery participates in the statewide high mountain lake stocking program, Kokanee salmon and Golden trout programs. In addition to incubation and rearing, the Daniel Hatchery provides spawning, egg incubation, and rearing for one of Wyoming's native populations of cutthroat trout, the Colorado River cutthroat. Offspring from these broods are used for restoration efforts as well as for stocking in fishing waters throughout the state.
Another function provided by the hatchery is due to Daniels' cold water. Hatchery personnel are able to hold back, or slow, the growth of fish. They use this technique to provide small fish for helicopter, horse packing, backpacking and ATV stocking. Three dedicated Department personnel are stationed at the Daniel Hatchery and are responsible for the egg care, incubation, fish rearing, stocking, maintenance and operation of the facility, on a year round basis.

Ballarat Fish Hatchery Tour (Raising Hatchery Trout)
In this tour of Ballarat Fish Hatchery, we will learn about raising hatchery trout and how million of them are harvested, raised and released in Lake Wendouree. This important job of harvesting amazing trout eggs and raising hatchery trout is completed by a group of highly passionate volunteers.
These people are skilled enough to make a trout or million of them. Raised trouts are distributed to other hatcheries, land holders, fishing organisations and directly sold to the public for a reasonable price. Over 6000 brown trouts are released in Lake Wendouree for fishing enthusiasts every year.
Ballarat fish hatchery has been operated by Ballarat Fish Acclimatisation Society since 1870. One of the society member did my fish farm tour as well. The hatchery produces in excess of 500,000 trouts each year (rainbow and brown). It uses 4 sand filter to clean the water and a cooling tower to keep the temperature down.
Trout hatchery has a holding capacity of 69 concrete areas, which comprises of 24 rectangular races, 41 concrete ponds and 4 cylindrical tanks which you would see in this video. Average depth of all these concrete areas is between 1.4 and 1.7 meters.
If you don't live too far away from Ballarat then give this place a visit and by the end of tour please donate some money to the society. I hope you would enjoy Trout hatchery documentary and will learn about harvesting, raising and distribution of both rainbow and brown trouts.

North Dakota
Deputy Chief of Mission Lee Brudvig talks about his home state of North Dakota. #50states #ND
Transcript:
Hello, I'm Lee Brudvig, Deputy Chief of Mission at the U.S. Embassy in Vienna, and I want to tell you about my home state, North Dakota.
Not a lot of people hail from North Dakota. Although relatively large in size, North Dakota is the 3rd least populous state, with less than 700,000 inhabitants.
North Dakota is located in the northern Midwest of the United States. The city of Rugby marks the geographical center of the North American continent. North Dakota is bordered by Minnesota, Montana, South Dakota, and Canada. The capital is Bismarck but the largest city is Fargo, home to about one sixth of the state's population.
My hometown is Aneta, which is known for production of wheat and turkeys. My family still has a large farm in the area producing mainly Durham wheat, used to make the best pasta in the world by many countries including Italy!
North Dakota has exceptionally cold winters, ranking second only behind Alaska. However ND isn't cold year round. In summer, temperatures regularly exceed 90 degrees.
The first Europeans to explore North Dakota were French Canadians in 1738. They traded goods with the Mandan Native American tribes. Most of North Dakota was part of the Louisiana Purchase of 1803. On March 2, 1861, President James Buchanan signed a bill creating the Dakota Territory, which originally included the area covered today by both Dakotas as well as parts of Montana and Wyoming. In 1889, both North and South Dakota became states simultaneously. Alphabetically speaking, North Dakota is the 39th state and South Dakota the 40th.
Being so far inland, North Dakota wasn't truly settled until the late 19th century when railroads were built. After that, homesteaders quickly began farming the land, often living in sod houses. Nearly all of the settlers were of German and Scandinavian heritage.
In fact, one of those settlers was my great Grandfather on my mother's side, Lars Hillesland. He left in Norway in 1880 with three brothers to homestead in North Dakota. Let me show you a picture of his first home (picture of sod house). He and his brothers prospered and multiplied. Here is a picture of him with my grandmother and their nine children. My grandmother is on the far right. And here is a picture of the four brothers and their offspring in 1934!
Agriculture remains the leading industry in North Dakota. Ninety percent of North Dakota is devoted to crops. It's the largest producer of grains such as barley and durum wheat in the US. Energy is another of North Dakota's major industries. North Dakota is the 4th leading producer of crude oil in the US. Its flat, unbroken landscape makes it ideal for wind energy.
My state is thriving. Since 2001, North Dakotans' personal income has grown nearly 25 percent. At 3%, North Dakota's unemployment rate is the lowest in nation. This economic boom can be attributed to the oil rush in 2008.
If you want to commune with nature, this large and less populated state is the place to visit. Every year tourists come to enjoy the untouched beauty the state has to offer. Popular tourist activities include hunting, fishing and hiking.
At the Canadian border, you'll find the International Peace Garden, where more than 150,000 flowers are planted every year. This garden, established in 1932, earned North Dakota its nickname: the peace garden state.
Theodore Roosevelt National Park in the state's southwest corner is an ideal destination for the outdoors lover. Aside from miles of hiking and riding trails, the park is one of the few places in the US where horses and bison roam free. The park borders the badlands and features some of the most unique landscape in the region.
North Dakota has its own culture too. Check out the United Tribes International Powwow, one of the largest in the nation. The powwow features Native American parades, singing, dancing, music and regalia. In fact, the Native American culture is so important in this area, that even the name, Dakota comes from the Sioux Indian word for friend.
My favorite thing about North Dakota is the wide open spaces. The state is mostly flat with huge farms. In the summer the wind on the wheat looks live waves on a golden ocean. In the winter the wind blows snow against the farmhouses and sometimes covers then. As a child, I remember being able to walk from the snowbanks on to the rooftop of the family farm.

Drawn to Yellowstone
In association with Wyoming PBS, Raechel Donahue of Wild West Productions has produced, written and directed a documentary loosely based on the Peter Hassrick book Drawn to Yellowstone, the story of how the art of Thomas Moran and the photography of William H. Jackson were used to persuade Congress to make Yellowstone into the world's first national park. Beginning with the native Americans who frequented the area, through the early expeditions in the 1800s and eventually traveling up to the present day, scholars and artists tell the story of this amazing 2.5 million acre wilderness and the incredible pull it has always held for artists of every kind.
