Purchasing reproducing fish with a COR permit will be a growing advantage. It is a valid for 5 years and we generally have the highest quantity of reproducing fish available to sell as the demand on them is smaller.

“If you plan to stock reproducing trout, you likely need a COR. The exception is if you plan to purchase sterile trout species and stock them into a properly screened pond that is not on a natural stream channel.” An easy tool is to: Click here, type your address in and see what rules apply to your area!.

There are two main factors that [the DNR] uses to determine if you need a COR to stock fish in your private pond.

Pond screening — You will need a COR if your pond lacks screening or if your screened pond is located on a natural stream channel.

Ponds located on a natural stream channel — If your pond is located on a natural stream pond, you need a COR. Even for a properly screened pond, we need to evaluate the threat the possible effects of escaped fish on area native fish.

IF you are interested in purchasing any warm-water species you will need to apply for a COR permit.

Click here, type your address in and see what rules apply to your area!

Step 2: Using the legend from the Utah DNR Private Pond Stocking Rule you can determine what trout the state will let you stock.

Things to know:

• Trout is a salmonid
• Sterile means non-reproducing, aka triploid.
• Fertile means reproducing, aka diploid.
• COR refers to the name of a permit needed before stocking can occur.

Step 3: If you need a permit, fill out the permit and submit to [email protected]

We recommend to put warm water fish in your pond if it is consistently above 68ºF. However, we do not sell warm water fish. We recommend you contact Sunfish Fish Farms at (801) 376-3571.

We are one of few suppliers of trout in Utah. This means our delivery schedule fills up fast. We will deliver for orders above $250.00, including fish and delivery. It costs $3/mile one-way for us to deliver.

If you are able to bring your own tank, or rent ours, we can load up your tank with water and fish once you arrive. This will lower your cost significantly and ensure your pond is stocked according to your timeline.

Trout are very susceptible to stress in delivery. In order to ensure smoothest delivery for loading and unloading trout into a new environment, it is best to:

1. Hold them off feed for a day.
2. Fill the loading tank with water from their original source.
3. Provide oxygen through transportation.
4. Acclimate the fish upon arrival. For acclimation tips at unload, ask a CSTF employee upon arrival.
   1. If renting our tank, we will provide a net for unload.
   2. You may want to have a clean 5 gallon bucket ready in case your truck cannot get you all the way to your pond for unloading.

Because Step 1 is to hold fish off feed for a day, if you place an order after the first round of feeding, we will wait one business day before we will load your tank.
