Milking Stillwater trout

[FishWhisperer]

Does it really prolong a stillwater trout's life if you milk it, the eggs from hens and the milt/sperm from cockfish.

You milk the cock fish!? Could you perhaps explain that process to me.

Same process as the hen, of course. HELL, same fish just a different gender.

Eish ! I don't think giving him a tug will help prolong his life but maybe the the "Happy Ending" will help him forget about the nasty prick he just had in his mouth.

I have milked hundreds and have never even come close to hurting these fish, so if one does not know dont do it until someone can show you properly.

Uhm hello, you made a pretty broad statement not qualifying whom it applies to. My point being, tell someone with no experience to squeeze the eggs out of a fish ... what do you get ?

As for the rest of you guys talking about squeezing & tugging on cocks ...

*Cough* *Ahem* Right, now that I've managed to clean the coffee off my screen, thanks to the guy who milks the cockfish, here's what I've previously been told and taught by Rob Karssing, who used to run the hatchery at Kamberg:

1.) A rainbow hen is capable of re-absorbing her eggs around 2 or 3 times in her lifetime. After that, she becomes eggbound and dies. This is one of the reasons why cock fish tend to live longer than hens in stillwaters.

2.) Correctly stripping a hen of her eggs is a delicate operation. Do it incorrectly and you can easily damage her internal organs and she will die. If you've never been shown how to do this the correct way, the fish is better off simply being released without being stripped.

3.) Cock fish do not need to be "milked". Fish breeders only strip milt from cock fish to obtain a supply in order to fertilise eggs they intend hatching.

Cockfish live longer because I wank them.
