Trout stamp availability - 03/05/18 01:17 PM

Seeing as how the trout stamps are not yet available, is it legal to fish in a TMA that's open year-round now (March 5) without one ?

Yes, it’s fine – only after the regulations are posted on the SOTS website will the stamp be required. A few days yet. Until then no stamp required.
