'Tis the season to begin stocking rainbow trout around Texas. These trout are easy to catch, making them a fun way to engage children in the confidence-building sport of fishing – the young lady in the photo won a First Fish Award with her rainbow catch.

We'll begin stocking Nov. 26. Check the stocking schedule for dates and locations where trout are headed this winter, including Neighborhood Fishin' ponds and lakes. The schedule will be updated throughout the season.
