Peapack Brook Complaint sent to NJ F&G

[Cuz]

Got to Peapack-Gladstone by 9:00 am. Two places very near each other I fish have posted trout signs. You can see the fish in each spot very clearly because this brook is very shallow. The same three fish I've caught and released several times were in one spot. Two rainbows and one very small brown trout. The other spot has four small rainbows which I have caught and returned on one ocassion last week. The stocking truck never arrived today. I kept fishing and watching all day until 6:00 pm. The brook was suppose to be stocked today according to the schedule listed. What prompted me to e-mail F&G was the following scenerio. Two young boys who I have fished with before at this spot arrived as I was leaving. I had to tell them to fish somewhere else because the spot wasn't stocked today. I felt terrible when I saw the look on their faces. And it made me angry that someone didn't do their job and caused disappointment to two youngsters who were all pumped up to fish. I explained the situation to the driver, one of the boys mother. She agreed. They went somewhere else to fish. I hope I get an answer and find out why the trout weren't stocked today.
