McCoy Pond Rainbow Trout Introduction Draft Environmental Assessment
Jun 19, 2023 2:54 PM
Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks is proposing to stock rainbow trout from a State of Montana Fish Hatchery to McCoy Pond near Plentywood, MT. McCoy Pond (48.83714, -104.61680) is located on private land but will be managed by FWP for public access. The proposed project would increase angling opportunity for anglers in Northeastern Montana. This part of the state has limited fisheries opportunities and are often seasonally volatile. An additional angling opportunity in the area, especially one that provides generally high catch rates, would greatly improve fishery resources available to anglers.
