Question: Is it legal to use dead farm-raised trout for bait in inland waters? When I read the regulations it seems like only “live trout” is called out. Costco has farm-raised rainbow trout for sale at a great price and I was thinking it might make great catfish bait for my kids. (Marcus)
Answer: No. Trout may not be used for bait (California Code of Regulations Title 14, sections 4.00-4.30).
Answer: No. Trout may not be used for bait (California Code of Regulations Title 14, sections 4.00-4.30).
