Re: NJ Trout Stocking Shortened from 7 to 4 Weeks
Pros and Cons I guess. Look at all the people who bought fishing licenses and trout stamps. This could push people off some waters only to explore new waters. People may find there are more hold over trout then they ever imagined. 24,000 trout in the Raritan, I asked for fall stocking on the main stem of the Raritan but instead 170 big trout went into a duck pond in Edison, go figure. For years now Round Valley has suffered a food forage problem but that never stopped them from dumping thousands of fish in there annually, now would be a good time for Round Valley to ask for smallmouth stocking, I think at one point there were just as many smallmouth in there as there were trout. So maybe we are looking at pros and cons here but disease of any sort can’t be good business. Looking at some of the photos on here gives you an idea just how diverse this little state is.
