If you've been following Capitol Outdoors for a while, you've seen we're big fans of the Spring and Fall Inland Trout Season. It's a great time to introduce new people to fishing and just a good time to be outside. This season, however, is going to be a little different for me when it comes to the opener. You see, some of my very first fishing memories were of me inland trout fishing and now I get to share those moments with my daughter Autumn. It has been fun watching her as she experiences the outdoors.
This year, 57 (four new fall sites added) sites will be stocked prior to opening day, which is October 20th. Remember to buy that trout stamp, because without it the program would not exist.
