A new conservation license plate depicts the shiny, speckled, greenish-brown body of the brook trout, the state’s only native cold-water trout, swimming through a cool, blue, clean mountain stream.

The N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission will use all proceeds from sales of the plate to support brook trout conservation and management, fund habitat protection and create public access to brook trout waters in Western North Carolina.

A minimum of 500 paid applications must be received by the Commission prior to July 1, 2015 for this plate to be produced.

100% of all proceeds will be used for brook trout habitat and fishing access.
