Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission is preparing for another action-packed trout season with two opening days and bigger stocked fish, plus an exciting preseason event at Gander Mountain stores statewide!
Join the Fish and Boat Commission to celebrate the upcoming trout season as they host educational trout expos at Gander Mountain stores throughout the state, running Friday, March 14, through Sunday, March 16, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day. (Participation varies by store.)
The Fish and Boat Commission will be on hand to answer questions, provide visitors with helpful maps and how-to information, and offer insights on the best places to trout fish in Pennsylvania. Plus, Gander Mountain stores are offering an added bonus for visitors. Anyone who comes to Gander Mountain stores on the event dates can also enter to win $200 in fishing gear!
The Fish and Boat Commission invites you to visit Gander Mountain stores during the trout expo to get information on planning a fishing trip with your family and friends for one of the two trout openers: March 29 in 18 southeastern counties in Pennsylvania (Adams, Berks, Bucks, Chester, Cumberland, Dauphin, Delaware, Franklin, Juniata, Lancaster, Lebanon, Lehigh, Montgomery, Northampton, Perry, Philadelphia, Schuylkill and York) or April 12 in the rest of the state. Anglers 16 years and older must possess a valid fishing license to fish in Pennsylvania.
