Attention trout anglers. We would like your help by taking this short survey to test your trout identification skills.

Results from this survey will help us determine the types of information needed to assist our anglers with trout identification while fishing.

The Maryland Department of Natural Resources, Fishing and Boating Services, has recently adopted a new catch and release regulation for brook trout in all put and take trout management waters, and all waters east of Interstate 81.

In order for this regulation to be effective, proper identification of trout species is necessary. These efforts will help protect our native brook trout. Individual results will be anonymous.

Thank you again for your time and help in conserving Maryland's natural resources.
