Trout stocking suspended on Lower Mountain Fork
Water released from Broken Bow Lake into the Lower Mountain Fork River
Most of Beaver’s Bend State Park in McCurtain County is expected to re-open for Memorial Day weekend, but the state will not be putting more trout in the river this week as scheduled.
The Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation is skipping its Thursday’s scheduled trout stocking due to all of the water that has been released – and still being released – from Broken Bow Lake, said Paul Balkenbush, fisheries biologist for the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation.
Trout are normally added to the river every two weeks. The state will return to its normal stocking schedule in two weeks, Balkenbush said.
