Win a prize in the annual Family and Community Fishing Program

AGFC Communications One of the annual AGFC traditions is the stocking of rainbow trout at Family and Community Fishing Program locations from November through February. Another tradition is the addition of special prize-winning tags to randomly selected fish in these stockings for anglers to enjoy even more.

“This is the most tags we’ve ever put out for the trout tagging promotion,” Maurice Jackson, Family and Community Fishing Program Coordinator for the AGFC, said. “There will be close to 500 tagged fish swimming in ponds throughout the state this Christmas season. Whether you've been naughty or nice, if you catch a tagged rainbow trout you'll receive a gift from the AGFC.”

In addition to a gift, all anglers who return a pink tag will be entered into a grand prize drawing for one of three guided troutfishing adventures courtesy of Sore Lip ‘Em All Guide Service on the Little Red River. The drawings will be held live on the AGFC’s Facebook page at 10 a.m.

March 18.

Aside from the prizes, the AGFC hopes all anglers take advantage of the opportunity to catch a few of the thousands of trout being stocked in community ponds this holiday season. More trout will be coming to the ponds in January, too.

All tags must be mailed to the AGFC and postmarked by Feb. 27 to be eligible for the drawing. For more information or to find a location near you, visit www.agfc.com/familyfishing or call the stocking hotline at 866-540-3474, where you will find a list of FCFP ponds and the ones that have been stocked with trout, including the tagged trout.
