From 11 am to 3 pm, the Ottumwa Parks Department and the IDNR are hosting a family trout fishing day at the Ottumwa Park South Pond on Saturday, March 22, 2025.
This is a fun family event, which includes a fishing contest, prizes and giveaways, and youth fishing education. Plus the Iowa DNR will be stocking trout in the pond.
PLEASE NOTE:
Iowa residents and non-residents who are required to have a fishing license must pay the trout fee to fish.
EXCEPTION:
Iowa residents under the age of 16 year old may fish for trout without paying the trout fee if they fish with a properly licensed adult who has paid the trout fee.
