Trout Stocking

The man in charge Trout Stocking Onlookers Trout Stocking
The annual trout stocking at Strömmen in Stockholm. Ten thousand trouts were released into the water. A tradition that dates back fifty years. I was there in time, but it was very crowded, so I walked around a bit while listening to the many speaches, because we can't have an event like this without a few speeches.

  2. That is interesting. I've actually seen this done here in our canals. It's not trout but some other fish. I had no idea they did such a thing until I saw it myself.

    1. Half an hour or so later I walked over to Strömparterren, a part of Helgeandsholmen nearby where I spotted and photographed one guy fishing.
