Volunteers needed to help trout stock the Musconetcong River this Friday 5/7/16

[NorthJerzyG]

I've stocked with them before, good people! All state fish and no spot stocked is private property. Some posted C&R yes, but not private. Spreads the fish out nicely and still puts out significantly less than the main stocking truck. Plenty of fish, and spots out there for all. All done on a volunteer basis to improve the fishery. IMHO......

Plus, you can still find fish like these that don't come off the truck.....

Kronk / Goin Fishin,

Collectively you guys have 11 posts. If I took the time to check, it wouldn't surprise me if they were all as contentious as your contribution to this thread. Someone is asking for help stocking trout, something I'm sure many people would love to do. If you don't want to be involved, don't ruin the experience or question the intentions of the original poster in the process. This is one of the better fishing sites there are, you can help keep it that way or turn it into another cesspool site like so many others with negative comments. Show some respect for all the good members and Gerry Z the owner. He's invested an incredible amount of his time and money creating this and keeping it civil. I'm sure he could use everyone's help keeping this the best fishing site out there. Your choice but just my .02!

Thanks to those who replied with supportive words. If anyone is unsure of our intentions they are welcome to volunteer with us and see how we operate. But bringing the WCC signup form is a must to join us for insurance reasons.

Good luck to everyone the crew taking part will come through and hit a home run with this.

god bless all that help the stocking efforts.besides as pointed out its a good way to know the river. hey north jerzyg are you shure the fish your holding in that photo is a holdover? its a really nice rainbow.with all the bucketeers and commerants,snapping turtles and low water conditions that exists there in the summer months,i don't see many trout surviving.that one has a ground down dorsal fin common on most concrete critters the state stocks.

I'm not sure if it was a holdover or a privately stocked fish but it didn't even closely resemble anything we were tossing in from the state truck.......

I don't know, but for some reason this fish looks like freshwater salmon.

I was under the assumption it came from the Musky trout hatchery.......
