LDWF Stocks Rainbow Trout at Community Fishing Ponds Across Louisiana
January 9, 2021
Grab your fishing gear and bring your friends and family to a nearby Get Out and Fish! pond for the opportunity to catch a fish you don’t land every day.

The January trout stocking will be the first stocking for the newest GOF! site, Forts Randolph & Buhlow State Historic Site, located in Pineville. The site is managed by the Louisiana Office of State Parks and marks the 3rd Louisiana State Park to partner with LDWF to provide more accessible fishing locations for the state’s residents.
