Albinos were bred because I think that they were more disease resistant in the hatchery. Logan being the heart of the experimental stations for fish always had a lot of them. Back in the 70's when I was a starving college student I caught and ate many an Albino because they were so easy to spot and catch. Actually back then we caught many that were well over 5# and a few I know pushed over 7#. I don't think they grew that large in the river but where planted that big. Personally I just never liked them. They didn't seem to fight well and they were extremely easy to catch.
