To date, TPWD we has stocked 288,925 fingerlings into the San Antonio Bay complex and there are more on the way! By the end of the fall, the goal is to have released 500,000 fingerlings into SA Bay. Biologists at Sea Center Texas and Perry R. Bass Marine Fisheries Research Station are working hard to ensure that the goal is met.

Chris Martin’s Bay Flats Lodge assists the stock enhancement program in obtaining broodfish for the hatchery and has been instrumental in the program’s success.
