Attempt To Bring Fishing To More People
KENTUCKY...
In an effort to give more people the opportunity to enjoy the sport of fishing, the state Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources has expanded its urban fishing program this year. More small lakes across Kentucky have been included in the program. In 2006, when the program began, there were six lakes, and this year, there are 29. Participating lakes are regularly stocked with 13-to-16-inch catfish and rainbow trout in the 8-to-12-inch range. Daily limits at the lakes are five trout, four catfish, one largemouth bass larger than 15 inches and 15 bluegill or other sunfish. State license and permit requirements apply.
