SPRINGFIELD, Mo. – Ahead of the March 1st trout season, the Missouri Department of Conservation is banning the use of felt-sole waders in trout streams.
The department is doing this to combat invasive species of algae called “rock snot”.
The algae, also known as didymo, has already infested the white river just south of the Missouri-Arkansas border.
