Njfw released a water quality report a few years back.lists local streams of water was capable of holding native trout. It's been a godsend.

This is where they say they've seen trout. You can also google your stream and see what it's classified as and what it's demerits are

And yea they stock the Pompton- it flows to the Passaic. It makes for some fun. Watched a pike demolish a stockie I lost by the old a/p McDonald's
