Fall Trout Stocking schedule

even though not choked or muddy I wonder why Hammonton Lake gets stocked... be curious if they ever get a return from that place

I'd still rather see unlicensed anglers get the fish than let the Cormorants have them.

The brood stock should have been spread out better. North Jersey should have a handful of ponds getting some fish.

Look on the bright side, the more people who fish the local mud ponds, the fewer googans you have to contend with on the river.

Those ponds probably have a decent rate-of-return since the trout have no choice but to hang out in the deeper section of the pond with dozens of baits right in front of their faces.
