Kansas trout season starts today! They are already pulling them out of the El Dorado Trout Stream.
Is there any way to know for sure what day they actually stock them besides calling around to try to find out? I find it difficult to find anybody who knows at some of the locations.
Generally the state park or agency who is in control of the water body is willing to tell you what day they are expecting their next stocking at least ft. Riley and kanopolis are

Yeah, I can imagine Craig. I know stuff happens that's why I like to call first. Just mostly wanted to make sure I wasn't missing it some where posted or something - like a listing of dates that were actually completed or something. No biggie though.
Thanks for the replies guys!
I will usually add the completed stockings to my El Dorado fishing report page on the KDWPT site so folks can see when it was last stocked.Quote:
