                                    Changes to List of Class A Wild Trout Waters

                                                                 Summer 2006

The Fish and Boat Commission (Commission) has approved the addition of Plum and Halter Creeks, Blair County, to the list of Class A Wild Trout Waters as set forth in 34 Pa. B. 6730 (December 18, 2004), 35 Pa. B. 1486 (February 26, 2005) and 35 Pa. B. 6716 (December 10, 2005).  The Commission also has approved the removal of Beaverdam Run, Somerset County, from the list of Class A Wild Trout Waters as set forth in 36 Pa. B. 2876 (June 10, 2006).

Pursuant to 58 Pa. Code §57.8a (relating to Class A wild trout streams), it is the Commission’s policy to manage self-sustaining Class A wild trout populations as a renewable natural resource and to conserve that resource and the angling that it provides.  Class A wild trout populations represent the best of this Commonwealth’s naturally reproducing trout fisheries.  The Commission manages these stream sections for wild trout with no stocking.
