While you’re waiting for trout season to open, check out this WSBE Rhode Island PBS Weekly look inside one of our trout hatcheries! Hear from #TeamDEM’s dedicated freshwater fisheries staff that work hard to run our hatcheries and get a behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to stock trout throughout the state. Watch the segment at https://lnkd.in/edYrZSdz.   Reminder: fishing trout-stocked waters between March 1 and before the season opens at 6 AM on April 13th, is prohibited. Can’t wait? Anglers can still fish non-stocked waters starting March 1 with your updated 2024 freshwater fishing license. Anglers are reminded to follow all fishing and boating regulations – even when fishing in non-trout stocked water, no trout or salmon caught can be kept during this period. For a list of designated trout waters and other information please visit www.dem.ri.gov/fishing.
