A private landowner is applying for Private Fish Pond licenses and proposes to stock Rainbow Trout and Westslope Cutthroat Trout in two unnamed private ponds. The Upper Pond is 1.2 surface acres, and the Lower Pond is 3.4 surface acres. Both ponds are located on 392 Clancy Way, Bozeman. The ponds are about one mile east of Hyalite Creek, which is a tributary to the East Gallatin River. Hyalite Creek contains Brook Trout, Brown Trout, and Rainbow Trout. The pond is fed from Hoy Ditch, which is a diversion of Hyalite Creek. This project consists of two ponds that are connected by a small channel. The outlet consists of a screened Clearwater suction screen that flows into a Agri-Drain control structure. The ponds discharge to Hoy Ditch over a manmade waterfall and eventually reach the Middle Creek Ditch.
