The trout fishing in Rhode Island is about to level up.
Officials with the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (DEM) are currently stocking trout in waterways throughout the state.
DEM crews began stocking brook and rainbow trout in selected areas on Friday, October 17, and will continue through Thursday, October 23.
Officials said some previously stocked ponds and lakes cannot be stocked due to cyanobacteria alerts.
The following areas will be stocked:
♦Alton Pond, Richmond
♦Barber Pond, South Kingstown
♦Blackstone River, Lincoln
♦Bradford Fishing Area, Westerly
♦Browning Mill Pond, Exeter
♦Carbuncle Pond, Coventry
