Caples Lake Resort has received yet another fish plant from the DF&G. On 9/21/09 11,200 Rainbow Trout from the American River Trout Hatchery, weighing about a half pound each, and totaling just over 4,000 lbs were released into Caples Lake @ 10:30a.m. This Plant brings the number of catchable (half pound or more) fish (Browns, Brooks, Rainbows) planted by DF&G so far this year to a staggering 91,500 Fish (that we know of)! There has been roughly 227,000 3″ fingerlings planted! And of course the 1,500 Trophy Rainbows ranging in size from 5 to 15 lbs planted in June by EID. Caples Lake Resort and all of its anglers would like to thank the DF&G and EID in their support in restocking Caples Lake and making this Summer/Fall one of the best years of fishing in a long time!!!
