Grab your fishing pole; the trout are here!

It's that time: spring trout stockings have begun. Celebrate that spring is finally here, and head to a city pond or lake to enjoy some good fishing.

Rainbow trout have already been released in multiple locations, with dozens of other sites statewide to come. There are a ton of communities on the list; visit our website to find one near you.

Rainbow trout fishing is especially great for kids or beginners as only simple and inexpensive equipment is needed. Trout will bite on about anything, including corn, worms or wadded up pieces of bread. They're also easy and safe to handle. Bring a towel for handling these slippery fish, and a cooler to keep some for dinner!
