Trout Stocking at OSU Lake Carl Blackwell!

 This project is overseen by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation (ODWC) and additional information can be found here.

 

For those of you eagerly awaiting the arrival of trout – we have been informed by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation that the present date for stocking the pond is tentatively set for November 1, 2025. This is dependent upon the water temperature.  Please direct your enquiries to the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation for updates. You can also check our Facebook page at OSU Lake Carl Blackwell as we will update as we receive information.

  

OSU Lake Carl Blackwell will be governed by ODWC’s rules and regulations which includes but is not limited to a daily limit of three trout per person. 

 

To fish trout at Turtle Pond all visitors must always have either a daily permit OR an annual permit obtained at our Park Office, clearly visible in their vehicle, or will be subject to a citation. 

 

An Oklahoma fishing license is required of all persons 18 or older who take, attempt to take, or possess fish or other aquatic dwelling organisms by any method in Oklahoma.
