Learn about wild brook trout in Vermont with Will Eldridge of the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department. 

Wild brook trout are doing very well in Vermont. A recent statewide assessment found that the abundance of brook trout in streams and rivers across the state is the same now as it had been in the 1950s and 60s. This assessment did not evaluate the cause for this success, but it would be reasonable to attribute a large portion of it to the health of streamside forests throughout the state. This will be a 30 minute presentation with 10 minutes of questions.
