From their website, it's $35.00 a day to fish, plus $5.95 per pound for the fish you catch. You're not allowed to release any fish and have to pay a $35.00 a day fine if you are caught doing so. If you don't want to keep fish, it's $210.00 a day. They clean all the fish for you. They hatch 200,000 trout a year. That's definitely not a bad price to pay for fresh trout, especially with the experience. It looks like a beautiful place.
The largest indoor trout farm is in Urbanna, Ohio near me. They charge $12.99 a pound for live trout that size. The owner is a great guy. He does a lot for our community. He's worked hard to create a great park with good fishing. He's bought a lot of plants from me this year, on 3 separate occasions. He's been trying to get bobwhite quail and ringneck pheasants established on his land and the adjoining park, that he's built pretty nice habitat on. The park is only open on weekends this time of year, but he will let me have the key for the gate to fish there.

LMAO ...so basically it's fishing in a barrel for wannabe fisherman.... Or Deer hunting inside a tall fenced in property That's my take, as well.
Just doing what I want now.

The place Big Buck fished looks like a natural stream. It's probably not significantly different fishing there than fishing in waters stocked with trout, by state DNRs all over the US. I would guess the trout that survive there for a while get pretty wary, just like other stocked fish.
There's no fishing at the trout farm by me. They charge $12.99 a pound for large live trout for stocking or eating. They sell cleaned, trout, smoked trout, trout dips and lots of other types of seafood. There's no trout in the park next door. There's some nice flatheads, channel cats, bluegill and bass.
The park by me has a blue hole, with 8000 plus gallons coming out of the ground per minute. The water is crystak clear and the blueness further out reminds you of the Caribbean.
Keith I bet u if your are paying by the pound and have to keep everything you catch they keep as many fish in the stream as they can. Doesn't take a very smart businessman to figure out you want as many catches as you can get.
