About this no-lottery opportunity

The agency documents ordinary recreational fishing or a developed public fishing access at this named place, and the state sells ordinary fishing licenses directly. This record excludes controlled events and separately restricted activities; it does not promise a space or a catch.

No lottery is required for the described access and species. Other hunts on the same property may require a drawing. Check current seasons, closures, check-in and capacity before traveling; open access does not reserve an exclusive spot.

Agency sources reviewed 2026-10-07. The agency Trout Park list verifies this park and location. Trout varieties describe the Trout Park program and are not a promise that every variety is present at each visit. Public entry is arranged with the agency, with no Back40 booking fee.
