The waters listed here are open to trout harvest during the “extended season” Unlisted tributary streams (those not included in this list of “stocked trout waters”) are not open to harvest of trout during the “extended season.” Only stocked trout waters and all waters downstream of stocked trout waters are open during this period. Spearing fish is not permitted in any of these waters at any time of the year.</SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 0 8;"><SPAN STYLE="font-size:9pt">These waters are closed to all fishing (including taking of minnows) from March 1 to 8 a.m. on the opening day of the trout season. A person shall be deemed to be fishing if he or she has in possession any fishing line, rod or other device that can be used for fishing while on or in any water or on the banks within 25 feet of any water where fishing is prohibited.</SPAN></P><P STYLE="font-weight:bold;margin:0 0 0 8;"><SPAN STYLE="font-size:9pt">Stocked Trout Waters, Open to Year-round Fishing</SPAN></P><P STYLE="text-indent:48;margin:0 0 0 8;"><SPAN STYLE="font-size:9pt">Waters with this designation are considered “stocked trout waters.” From 8 a.m. opening day of trout through Labor Day, Commonwealth inland size and creel limits apply. From Jan. 1 through the end of February, and from the day after Labor Day through Dec. 31, “extended season” size and creel limits apply. These waters are open to fishing from March 1 to opening day of trout season; however, no trout may be taken or possessed on these waters during this period. It is unlawful to fish in rivers and streams designated as stocked trout waters open to year-round fishing without a current trout/salmon permit. A trout/salmon permit is not required to fish in lakes and ponds that have been designated as stocked trout waters open to year-round fishing unless the person takes, kills or possesses, while in the act of fishing, a trout or salmon on or in these waters.</SPAN></P></DIV> |
