This is from Montana fish and wildlife: "In the 1980s, the state of Montana began stopping general stocking of all Montana rivers. The last hatchery fish were stocked in the Big Hole in 1990."
The ranchers don't have the time or the money to waste on hatchery fish that don't live very long.
The state did plant some Grayling in the late 90s in an effort to bring back a native fish, but that's it! I dpn't work for the lodge, but I have stayed there...because the fish are wild!!!

look at the gash in the fish's tail bro. That is a tell-tale sign of a stocked fish.

@troutbum86 bro they don't stock in MT the gash was probably from a bigger brown
