Large Brook Award Winner

Type: Nontidal
Region: Northern
Location: Octoraro Creek

Went fishing on Octoraro creek and hooked into this nice brook trout, it was my 1st ever . The fish measured 16.5" which was more than enough needed (minimum 12") to enter the Maryland Fishing Challenge. I was using a black roaster tail spinner.

DNR Note: we have had a few inquiries regarding this catch and DNR believes this is a PA stocked fish, occassionally various species make their way over the Conowingo Dam.
