Default Re: 2013 Stocking Totals

I forget what the percentage is, but theres ALOT of loss out of the stockings, u gotta remember most of these fish are fingerlings or less, thats the size of the herring and shiners we use as bait, easy meal for game fish......If you look at the species lists there are sizes listed, usually advanced fingerlings have the best chance......as far as muskie go I watched a stocking at LH and they were roughly 12" which is a great size to stock, I bet they have 80% or better on those making it thru the year.....My only gripe is wheres the TRUE STRAIN stripers for NJ, PA has em I want em in NJ really bad
