Re: Weekly stockings
Haven't heard, yet. There are still so, so many trout left in all of the rivers and brooks and ponds that even if they don't stock this week, you will be able to have good fishing. The Musky came up over a foot today and this rain will change things there and across the state The last anyone said about stocking was that it would be unannounced and random. Also, the restrictions about "closed waters" was waived. If you are there when the truck pulls up, you don't have to wait until 5 PM anymore. You can just fish. This is all to prevent anglers from congregating in parking areas waiting for the 5 PM start. It also prevents anglers from staking out their favorite brook or pond waiting for the stocking crew to show up. The stocking days that are posted in the Digest or Online don't matter. The South Branch may be stocked on a Friday instead of Tuesday and the Musky may be stocked on Tuesday instead of Friday. That goes for the brooks and streams that don't have closed waters. It makes great sense to me. It's pot luck.
