I happened to be at Lost Creek on Wednesday fishing. While pulling my boat out sometime after lunch I saw that a few pelicans were congregated around the ramp and there were several 8-9" (certainly not 12") rainbow planters lining the bottom of the ramp and surrounding area. I had noticed sometime mid morning what appeared to be the fish tanker truck pulled up on the ramp and unleashed the unlucky guys into their new environment, apparently several didn't even survive the trip to the water. The pelicans and sea gulls ate well that day! I guess there were still some left over when you arrived. Because all the dead fish were / are around the ramp it wasn't an issue with die off or another strange happening.
BTW- fishing was a little slow in the windy conditions Wednesday. Between my grandson and self we managed to land 6 (5 slot cuts and one decent rainbow). The water is way down and there are a few spots showing shallow out in the center of the lake that I never worried about before, had to be paying attention with the downriggers.
