Interactive trout stream map available

Empire State anglers now have a new tool for their virtual tackle box when it comes to trout fishing. The state’s Department of Environmental Conservation has released an interactive Trout Stream Fishing Map that helps anglers locate a preferred species of trout and where they can catch them. Detailed information will include stocking, fishing access points, season dates, regulations and more.

All Wild-Quality, Wild-Premier, Stocked and Stocked-Extended reaches are mapped, and DEC will complete the mapping of Wild categorized reaches later this year. Links to the user guide are available at DEC’s website, https://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/122444.html. Using the DECinfo Locator at https://www.dec.ny.gov/pubs/109457.html, hikers, campers, hunters and other outdoor users will be able to plan outdoor adventures throughout the state.
