Established in 1939, Creston
NFH originally provided fingerling trout for stocking waters in Glacier
National Park. Today, the hatchery has three main purposes: provide
trout for fishery management activities on the seven Tribal Reservations
in Montana; stock fish for mitigation purposes under the Hungry Horse
Dam Mitigation Program; and produce native bull trout eggs and fry for
research projects at various State, Federal, and educational facilities
through the Federal Broodstock Program.
