Change in daily trout limits for American and Black Lakes - FishNews - 03-11-2010
Action: The daily limit for trout is changed. Only two trout 14 inches or greater may be retained as part of the 5 fish bag limit.
Effective date: March 6 through April 30, 2010.<br />
Species affected: Trout other than kokanee<br />
Location: American Lake (Pierce Co.) Black Lake (Thurston Co.)<br />
Reason for action: These daily catch limit rules are intended to extend the time larger trout (including triploid trout) are available ensuring opportunity for more anglers.<br />
Other information: The trout daily limit will remain at five (5) fish per the general statewide rule; however only two (2) fish over 14 inches may be retained within the five (5) fish daily limit.<br />
