"Were smb intentionally stocked in Deer Creek, or was this an illegal introduction?"
[#0000FF]Sometime around the mid '80s a group of Utah bass clubbers were recruited by DWR to conduct a smallie catchathon on Flaming Gorge. The catchees were transported to Deer Creek...legally and with DWR aid and blessing. In those days smallies were still darlings in the Gorge and there was no way to anticipate the hostile takeover in Deer Creek.[/#0000FF]
