Are there any good reasons why not to stock only rainbows? I had heard they like to move more than browns, but really, do we have much more besides anecdotal evidence and isn't it different on some streams? My main stocked water is Oil Creek, which, like most all our stocked waters, only just gets too warm most summers. If Oil Creek (and many others) waters never got over, say, 78, it would hold on to its rainbows. Browns are done by that point. This year, I have caught rainbows almost exclusively there. If rainbows are, indeed "chickens with fins" why wouldn't Oil creek or Penns, that has wild brown and brookies within their watersheds be stocked, where they are, with only rainbows?
