LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission has set an Aug. 1 deadline for applications to obtain stocked fish.

The fish available for stocking typically are largemouth bass and bluegill fingerlings.

Cold-water bodies capable of supporting trout year-round may be considered for stocking of 5-inch rainbow trout.

Landowners and associations still may regulate angler access if they receive fish, but anglers cannot be charged a fee.

To download an application, go online at OutdoorNebraska.org and click on Fishing, Services, Special Fishing Forms and Documents, and Application for Fish.
