We have a standing order for delivery and stocking all the dams every month. The species, numbers, and sizes depend on availability, but average 1 kg. This practice causes the dams rather to be overstocked than otherwise.
Occasionally smaller fish or fingerlings are placed in a pool to grow, but also to accommodate children.
Over the years the average size of stocked fish went from 300 gms up to 700 gms. Big fish up to 3kg are also supplied on prior special order. The era of instant gratification had arrived.
Katrinasrust only uses large earthen ponds to rear trout in order to keep the quality as good as possible.
During winter months the owner breeds brown, golden and rainbow trout and in the summer months eyed ova are imported from either Denmark or United States.
Katrinasrust also offers a free advisory service on the development and management of trout waters
