Default Re: Stocking Trout

Without a doubt, there will be happy fishermen next week. That is the intention of the fall program. The fall is a beautiful time to be in the outdoors and, for one, I like to explore and experience as much of it as I can. That involves shuffling downstream often into more remote or less accessible locations. Unfortunately, with the low water flows, very, very few trout will ever have a chance to swim beyond the bridge and roadside pools into which they were thrown.

Maybe some of the volunteers will take some time to spread the trout and not just dump their nets into the holes. Or, as was suggested, wait a bit longer.

Those of you who fish in the lower stretches of the bigger streams may not notice how low the upper stretches are. If you fish the upper stretches of the NB, SB, Flatbrook or Musky, you may find that your favorite hip-deep spring run barely covers your ankles. Be prepared by having a plan B in mind. Fish on!
