Spoke with my dad over the weekend,

The schedule should be coming in this week for the next three weeks of stocking.

Week 1 - usually streams (they usually hit these streams in a limited number of spots but usually dump a lot (they may hit the flatbrook that week and only stop in 8 spots on the stream but dump a tank there). Usually the soft ground prohibits them from making more spots
Week 2 - lakes / small ponds / some brooks
Week 3 - another round for the major streams and they usually hit that week like they would normally for a regular stocking - all stops to be touched.

The pre-season stocking is based on geographic location and are different from the in-season schedule. Rivers (like the Musky) get one pres-season stocking.

Huh??? I dont understand this statement?

Pre-season isnt based on geo - they know the exact number of fish to go into each stream and is spread out throughout the preseason / and is all scheduled each day.

The preseason - typically - the Musky actually gets 4 trucks(in which those trucks will only have a section of the river (upper middle lower musky) for the preseason. Each truck will have like 10 stops and they will dump a tank worth of fish on that stocking sight. The fourth truck may do stops in the upper middle lower (depends on the schedule).

This will happen between when the rivers closed and opening day
