This car was used to deliver fingerling trout stream side in Michigan. Very state of the art for its time.

There are plenty of trout in Michigan. We've got hatcheries all over the place. Caught a couple over the 4th of July (+ a couple smallmouth bass and a sunfish)

Here's a more detailed link about the hatchery operation, etc.

592,000+ Brown trout and ~293,000 Rainbow trout were "planted" in Michigan in 2008 alone from just this hatchery.

I highly recommend the Pine River. It is deep but not terribly wide - fairly swift waters driving the fish to rest in eddys behind logs, etc. Fun stuff.
