We will never know for sure how they got there, and it doesn't really matter, they are there and now we will just have to wait and see what will happen. However I decided to do a search to see if any Utah hatcheries raise walleye. The first link I looked into (Springville fish hatchery) had this to say.
The highest number of fish produced was just over 24 million fish (mostly walleye fingerlings) in 1979.
Since its opening in 1909, the hatchery has raised or stocked rainbow, brook, brown and cutthroat trout; kokanee salmon; grayling; yellow perch; channel catfish; black bass; largemouth and smallmouth bass; crappie; bluegill; walleye; wipers; and June suckers"
