NASHVILLE, Tenn. – The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency has announced its 2018-19 winter trout stocking schedule. TWRA plans to release approximately 90,000 rainbow trout into Tennessee waters beginning in late November through March.
The program provides numerous close-to-home trout fishing opportunities for anglers during the winter months. These fisheries also provide a great opportunity to introduce children or first-time anglers to fishing. There are 43 locations for this year’s winter trout stocking program.
The trout will average about 10 inches in length. The daily creel limit is seven, but there is no size limit. Anglers are reminded that a trout license is needed in addition to the fishing license.
The following dates and locations are subject to change. Updates, as well as listings for other restocking locations, can be found on TWRA’s website at tnwildlife.org.
Local restocking efforts will include:
- Dec. 4: Shelby Farms in Memphis, Cameron Brown Lake in Germantown, Edmund-Orgill Park in Millington and Johnson Park Lake in Collierville
- Dec. 6: Davies Plantation Park and Yale Road Park, both in Bartlett; and Valentine Park Lake in Munford
- Jan. 8: Shelby Farms in Memphis, Cameron Brown Lake in Germantown, Edmund-Orgill Park in Millington and Johnson Park Lake in Collierville
- Jan. 10: Davies Plantation Park and Yale Road Park, both in Bartlett; and Valentine Park Lake in Munford
