Trout Stocking Schedule
Stocking in spring is generally completed by Memorial Day Weekend. Schedules are subject to change due to factors including equipment failure, personnel, inclement weather, high water, or other unforeseen circumstances. We are unable to provide or predict stocking dates for specific locations. Stocking reports are updated each Friday to note what water bodies were planned for stocking in the previous week. (You may need to hit your Refresh button on your browser.)
Fall trout stocking occurs in a 2-week period (depending on water temperatures), beginning in the last week of September and ending before Columbus Day weekend, a 2 week period. Trout waters underlined on the Trout Stocked Waters lists will be stocked during that 2-week period in the fall. Due to the short stocking season, fall stocking activity will not be on this Stocking Schedule.
