Sometimes we forget when we catch a trophy stripers from Lake Ouachita that it was first seen by a Fisheries Biologist at the Arkansas Game And Fish Commission.
The Striped Bass
does not naturally reproduce in Arkansas Lakes.
The stockings are the results of dedication biologists that work behind the limelight in Arkansas and don't get enough credit
for the tremendous fishing and hunting we enjoy in Arkansas.
These men and women spend countless days and nights working enduring weather conditions that keep the ordinary human tucked indoors talking about the memories they have created due to the biologists'
efforts in the stocking and management programs.
The lead biologist responsible for the striped bass program are district 8 Biologist Stuart Wooldridge
and
Assistant Biologist Brett Hobbs at the Hulsey fish hatchery managed by Don
Brader outside Hot Springs, Arkansas.
The next time you see one of the Biologist's AG&FC trucks in your area take a moment to say
For the work they do providing us the chance to create Memories of a
Life Time.
