Stocking up for the trout season opener
DFG's hatcheries are scheduled to plant approximately 90,563 large catchable trout this week in preparation for Saturday's trout season opener in the counties of Fresno, Kern, Madera, Mariposa, Merced, Monterey, San Luis Obispo, Tulare and Tuolumne.
The trout average .75 pounds apiece.
Anglers can expect most streams and rivers to be high and turbulent for the opener. Waters in higher elevations will be unavailable to some anglers. Check with the U.S. Forest Service for up-to-date road conditions and availability of campgrounds.
Kaiser Pass is not scheduled to be open prior to Memorial weekend.
