Opening day of the 2021 New York trout fishing season will be memorable for several reasons.
Among them, the snowy, freezing conditions that anglers endured and still caught fish. In addition, there’s the new inland trout management plan and regulations just been put in place by the state Department of Environmental Conservation. Changes include new stream classifications, new stocking strategies and the start of a year-round, statewide catch and release season.
Below is a photo gallery of submitted photos by Upstate NY anglers of their catches on April 1 and during the upcoming season. More will be added as they come in.
