Cedar Bluff hatchery manager Paul Butterfield oversees 26 million fish slated for federal waters in six states. The hatchery raises fingerlings and larger fish like eight inch catfish and tiger musky while facing disease and EPA drug-clearance limits. Butterfield notes demand for various sizes and species, including northern pike, walleye, bass, muskellunge and bluegill, with biologists guiding orders from the Denver regional office.
