Children age 15 or younger can fish for trout with a properly licensed adult, but they must limit their catch to one daily limit. The child can pay the trout fee which will allow them to catch their own limit of five trout.
This is the fourth year of this successful partnership that provides a unique fishing opportunity to anglers in southwest Iowa.
