The larger portion of the eggs that the Guadalupe River Trout Unlimited receive are put into Whitlock-Vibert boxes and placed into the Guadalupe River on stretches of the river deemed as private. This allows the best chance for their survival without tourists and curious passers-by destroying their habitats.  The video below is the process that the volunteers go through to place these eggs. The entire process is about three hours, so the video shows you the major parts of it without the repetition for each box being placed.
