- Strong Partnerships for Trout Hatcheries: For decades, federal and state trout hatcheries have maintained a strong partnership. This week, six fisheries staff made the LONG drive to upstate Arkansas to the Norfork National Fish Hatchery to transport 32,000 rainbow trout fingerlings back to the Buford Trout Hatchery in Georgia. Once grown, these fish will provide late-summer trout fishing opportunities across North Georgia.
