SOCIAL CIRCLE — If you were looking for a reason to go trout fishing, we have just the ticket. Trout fishing on Georgia’s delayed harvest trout streams is in full swing, according to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division.

While trout fishing can be found year-round in Georgia, there are five trout streams that are seasonally managed under special regulations called Delayed Harvest (DH) to increase angler success. These streams have catch-and-release regulations from Nov. 1-May 14 and are stocked monthly by WRD and other partner agencies like the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and South Carolina DNR. This combination of stocking and catch/release allows for good trout catch rates and high angler satisfaction.
