Trout Heading to Scott County Lake Oct. 20

DAVENPORT - The Iowa Department of Natural Resources will stock 1,500 catchable sized rainbow trout at Lake of the Hills in West Lake Park around 10:30 a.m., on Oct. 20. The DNR will also release a few large broodstock trout in the 57-acre lake. This is the second year trout have been stocked during the cool weather months at Lake of the Hills.

The trout are raised at the Manchester hatchery. Anglers who want to fish for the trout are required to purchase a trout stamp ($11) in addition to an Iowa fishing license. The daily bag limit for trout is five and the possession limit is 10.
