The fish salvage contractor considered all of your input, & thanks you.

Packanack Lake fish will be stocked in the Passaic River in the Borough of Lincoln Park, @ Boonton Tpk. & Pine Brook Road.

That intersection is actually on the Pompton River, Mark...about a mile or two upstream from where it meets the Passaic.

I'd love to see pictures of the river being stocked.

Thanks for the correction. Obviously, the fish salvage contractor chose the stocking point closest to the lake.

They began lowering Packanack Lake, yesterday. Fish salvage contractors usually make multiple passes with their electrofishing boats, as the lake gets shallower & shallower, & the fish get more concentrated.

Giving it their best effort, there are always some fish left, that can't be salvaged.

All carp are destroyed.
