2011-12 Winter Trout Stocking Set to Begin

NASHVILLE --- The winter trout stocking program of the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency is set to get underway on Dec. 1. TWRA plans to release more than 88,000 rainbow trout into Tennessee waters from December through March.

 

The program provides numerous close to home trout fishing opportunities for Middle and West Tennessee anglers during the winter months. These fisheries also provide a great opportunity to introduce children or first-time anglers to fishing.

 

The trout will average about 10 inches in length. The daily creel limit is seven, but there is no size limit.

 

TWRA has announced a list of locations to receive stockings in this year’s program. Please note that the dates and locations are subject to change. Click here to see the locations and dates.
