Let's hope as many as possible grow to be BEASTS!!:eek:

well I know a few of those waters get stocked with trout, so the state is doing their part to help the pike grow :D

Re: Pike stocking info from 2011:
 

any distinction betw the two Passaic listings ? Why data not combined ?

Re: Pike stocking info from 2011:
 

yes, there is a distinction.

9,715 fish between 1.8" and 3.5" with an average length of 2.8" for a total of 50 pounds of fish, or about 194.3 fish per pound.

3,150 fish between 5.3" and 6.7" with an average length of 6" for a total of 150 pounds of fish, or about 21 fish per pound.

The two lines represent two batches of stockings. The first batch was a stocking of fry. The second batch was a stocking of fingerlings that were over twice as long and weighed over 9 times as much as the first batch's fish.

If combined, it would be
But as so, you lose the distinction between the two separate batches.
