I own a piece of forest land in central PA that has a nice smalll stream running through it along with 7 springs on the property. The land is completely wooded with a high canopy of trees, never exceeds the high 50s, never runs dry, and supports a large population of minnows. I know through family history that prior to logging in the late 1880s the stream held brook trout. The logging of the 1880s destroyed the trout and a small mill dam downstream (not my property) has kept any trout from re-populating the stream. I've recently been considering re-introducing some brookies into the stream. I was thinking of catching a few legal size in an ajoining valley and putting them in my stream. Is this legal? Is this a good idea?
