New Zealand mudsnails infest Page Springs Fish Hatchery
Rainbow trout can be seen in one of the raceways at the Page Springs Hatchery in Cornville on Wednesday as Fish Culturist Matt Lyons walks around the pools. A sign outside announces that the raceways are closed to the public. An AZGFD spokesman said rainbow trout that were in the Page Springs Hatchery raceways where the New Zealand mudsnails were detected were transferred to the Willow Beach National Fish Hatchery for eventual stocking into mudsnail-positive waters VVN/Vyto Starinskas
