It's trout season!
Last Thursday, October 16th, drivers from AE Wood Fish Hatchery transported approximately 400,000 Red Drum fingerlings from Palacios to stock into Victor Braunig Reservoir.
With the 600,000+ fish stocked at Calaveras, that makes over a million Red Drum stocked between the two reservoirs!
Thank you to the AE Wood and Perry R Bass Hatchery staff who make this possible!
