(UNDATED) - The 2016 Indiana trout stream season opens this Saturday, April 30, at 6 a.m. local time and runs through December 31.
There is a daily bag limit of five fish with a 7-inch minimum size limit.
More than 22,000 rainbow trout will be stocked in 17 streams across the state by Saturday morning. The trout are produced at DNR's Curtis Creek Trout Rearing Station in LaGrange County. To complete the stream stockings, personnel and hauling trucks from four northern Indiana hatcheries pitch in.
Anglers 18 years of age and older must have a trout stamp in addition to a valid fishing license to fish for trout.
Information about Indiana trout stocking sites and numbers is at dnr.IN.gov/fishwild/files/fw-trout_stocking_plan.pdf.
