Workers from Laurel Hill Trout Farm arrived Friday to stock Shobers Run in the area of the Bedford Middle School for a special fishing opportunity for young anglers.
The âTrout for Shobersâ permit from the state Fish and Boat Commission designates the area for fishing for those age 15 and younger for a season that began Saturday and lasts through June 1.
Fishing in the area will be illegal for those age 16 and older. Adults will be permitted to assist children with casting or retrieving a line or rod â and will not be required to possess a fishing license â provided that the child remains within an armâs length of the adult and the child is actively involved in the fishing activity.
