More than 67,000 pounds of trout will be stocked in the mountain and piedmont regions of North Carolina between Nov. 29 and Dec. 21, including locations in Jackson, Macon, Buncombe and Transylvania counties.
The fish were raised in the Bobby N. Setzer and Armstrong state fish hatcheries and include brook, brown and rainbow trout at least 10 inches long. Anglers can harvest up to seven per day in impoundments with no bait restrictions or minimum size limits.
A stocking schedule is available at bit.ly/49BHNkh and subject to change.
