If you look on Idaho Fish and Game website you will see that most of the fish planted in Idaho are Kamloops.

Correct. But, kamloops are just a Gerrard strain rainbow.
Tightline -- you mentioned an Idaho lake with all Utah plates. If I run up to Panguitch Lake, I'll count just as many cars up there as you, and all of them will have Nevada plates. I can go to Kolob and have about 3/4 of the cars with Nevada plates. Does that really mean anything?
If strain was the limiting factor is fish size, I'd be right with you guys in wanting whatever strain was the biggest. Why not go with something like the Tzenzaicut Lake strain rainbow?
The funny thing about this thread, is that most people don't know anything about the Kamloops rainbow. Its legend is built mostly off myths. If they are truly the rainbow trout of preference, why doesn't B.C. currently stock them anywhere?
Oh, wait -- they do. They stock Gerrard strain.
