Trout flow into C.J. Strike

Idaho Power added 50,000 pan-sized rainbow trout to C.J. Strike Reservoir late last week to benefit local anglers in preparation for spring and summer fishing.

The company alternated the releases between Cottonwood and Jack's Creek accesses at the reservoir, which covers roughly 7,500 acres in Elmore and Owyhee counties.
