SAN ANGELO, TX - The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has announced plans to stock over 25,000 rainbow trout across 14 locations in West Texas, including several sites in San Angelo, starting this winter.
The 2024-2025 stocking schedule will continue into early next year.
In San Angelo, Oakes Street and Foster Park are among the designated locations, with scheduled stocking dates beginning on Nov. 27 for Oakes Street and Dec. 10 for Foster Park. TPWD will stock these sites multiple times through February, with Oakes Street receiving a total of 2,656 trout and Foster Park getting 1,600.
