Packanack lake has largemouth bass, white perch, bluegill, pumpkinseed, yellow perch, black crappie, brown bullhead, and common carp. White perch and the sunfish are the most common species.

A NJF&W stocking truck will be on site to obtain some fish for the Hackettstown Hatchery. The remainder (carp will be destroyed) will be stocked in the Pompton River.
