October 10, 2007Roanoke River delayed harvest waters got trout todayThe DGIF stocked the Roanoke River's two delayed harvest sections with trout today. One section runs adjacent to Green Hill Park just outside Salem. The other section is in Salem between the Colorado Street Bridge and the Apperson Road Bridge near the Apperson/Electric Road intersection. HERE's a basic map of the sections. If you don't know exactly where they are, you'll need a city map or need to use an Internet mapping service to locate the stretches. Delayed harvest waters are catch and release only (until the end of May), and anglers must use artificial lures. And, no, Power Bait, as artificial as it may be, does not count. |
