Trout stocking alert!!! (Dec 19-22 2022)
It looks like because of Christmas vacation the powers at be have stocked many of our local lakes and ponds with trout! Their is 2 different groups that are stocking trout this week. The Department of Fish and Game and the Orange County Regional parks. I'll list them separately and surprising their is some over laps, where some ponds are being stocked by both groups.
