Texans Trout Entry Expands Instate Fishing Access
Texas stocked about 116000 eight inch rainbow trout in five waters in December. Another 100000 smaller trout are being held in Parks and Wildlife Department hatcheries and will be released in spring. Waters receiving trout include Lake Rita Blanca, Brazos River tailrace below Possum Kingdom Lake, Guadalupe River below Canyon Reservoir, and Boykin Lake in East Texas. The program, begun on the Guadalupe River with Lone Star Brewery, aims to diversify Texas fisheries with non native species to attract anglers and improve fishing variety statewide.
