Trout population increasing on Middle Branch

They electrofish Middle Branch's entire stream length (about one mile) once a year. Last year, they only found four trout; the year before, they'd found none. By the end of the mile this year, Dunlap stood sweating, but beaming. They'd caught 26 trout, measuring in size from 80 mL to 164 mL. That's a sixfold increase in just one year.
