Bennington Hatchery Faces Summer Fish Disease Plan
Vermont officials face a long running disease issue at the Bennington hatchery as heat and bacteria stress fish each summer. A Cortland National Fish Hatchery biologist, Dave McDaniel, outlined a continuous drug treatment using sulfamerazine and tetracycline to blend with feed during the disease season. Local officials weigh stream improvements, changing hatchery focus toward quality over quantity, and potential relocation or consolidation to cut disease risk and streamline operations.

Vermont fish culture chief Bob Collins says only about one in five stocked trout reach the creel. In tests in Minnesota hatchery fish struggled when native trout were present, suggesting behavioral issues as the main cause rather than lack of hardiness. He imagines a fish psychology program as a humorous view of the problem.
