The Virginia Trout Season is fully underway and most all trout waters have been or will be stocked by the end of March. With a few exceptions, the waters affected by Hurricane Helene will be stocked.
Virginia contains over 3,500 miles of trout streams, in addition to numerous ponds, small lakes and reservoirs. The total includes over 2,900 miles of wild trout streams and about 600 miles of water inhabited with stocked trout. Virginia’s diversified trout habitat offers a wide range of trout fishing opportunities.
Over 1 million catchable sized trout will be stocked in 2025 and over 100,000 anglers will try to catch them.
Most streams have good water now, so what are you waiting for? Buy a Trout Stamp and go fishing!
