Can't make one of these stocking events? You can still join in on the fun by planning a fishing trip with family or friends to take advantage of spring trout stocking. MassWildlife will stock nearly 500,000 hatchery-raised brook, brown, rainbow, and tiger trout statewide this year. Information about where trout have been stocked is updated daily at Mass.gov/Trout
