Third Recent Cachuma Lake Trout Release
Rainbow Trout to Brighten Safe Outdoor Recreation over Holidays
(SANTA BARBARA, Calif.) – In cooperation with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, Santa Barbara County Parks was granted a Private Stocking Permit for up to 16,000 pounds of triploid rainbow trout for 2020/2021. Two 4,000-pound deliveries arrived earlier this fall with the third making a splash on December 15, just in time for safe outdoor recreation over the holiday season.
NOTE: While visiting Cachuma Lake, please follow the rules and guidelines relating to COVID-19 posted throughout the park.
Support Santa Barbara County Parks by purchasing an Annual Pass, which makes a great Christmas gift or stocking stuffer for the angler in your family. Skip the holiday ham this year and catch a trophy trout for your meal. Both nutritious and delicious, it won’t disappoint! And if you are in the park after dark, be sure to visit the Marina to see the annual floating holiday trees adorned with colorful lights.
