Family trout-fishing day returns to Fort Griffin State Historic Site from 10:00 a.m to 2:00 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 16, with the park’s pond stocked with rainbow trout. 

“This is the third and final trout-stocking for the winter,” said Mitch Baird, Fort Griffin’s site manager. “The trout won’t live past the warmer months of the year, so we encourage folks to come out and catch their limit of five trout per day.”

A Fort Griffin staff member will provide instruction and assistance for families who attend, with everyone welcome. 

State fishing rules apply.

In addition to the unique opportunity to fish for rainbow trout, golf carts will be available for self-guided tours of the historic military fort. 

Regular admission cost applies and will allow complete access to the fort, hiking trails, and the trout-fishing day activities.
