Brookville Reservoir Tailwater stocked with rainbow trout

STATEWIDE — The Indiana Department of Natural Resources announced Tuesday that it stocked 5,228 rainbow trout in five different lakes and streams across Indiana this month, including Brookville Reservoir Tailwater.

Curtis Creek Trout Rearing Station had a surplus of trout, which allowed for these additional stockings. The stocked surplus trout is greater than 7 inches on average.

A total of 1,000 fish were stocked at Brookville.

Anglers age 18 and older need an Indiana fishing license and a trout/salmon stamp to fish for trout. The bag limit for trout in inland waters, other than Lake Michigan and its tributaries, is five fish per day with a minimum size limit of 7 inches. There is no closed season for taking trout from inland lakes. Review inland trout regulations: www.eregulations.com/indiana/fishing/inland-trout-regulations/.
