FYI: Winter Trout Stocking Begins November 19

[Wilson]

The NJDEP Division of Fish and Wildlife's Winter Trout Stocked Lakes Program provides additional trout fishing opportunities during the late fall and winter months. The program is designed to ensure that at least one lake is within easy driving distance of anyone interested in trying their luck on a beautiful winter's day.

The stocking consists of two-year old trout averaging 14 to 18 inches in length. The fish will be stocked in 24 lakes ranging in size from five to 100 acres and with shoreline access and/or boat launching sites.
