🎣 FALL TROUT STOCKING INFORMATION 🎣

Beginning October 13, NJDEP Fish & Wildlife will stock approximately 29,000 two-year old Rainbow Trout, averaging 14-16 inches over a two-week period.

In addition to these trout, up to 1,000 Broodstock trout (three-year old Rainbow Trout, averaging 18-22 inches) will also be stocked. Broodstock trout are mixed in with each truckload of fish to provide exciting fishing opportunities throughout the state.

New regulations are in effect this season. The minimum size is 9 inches and the daily limit is 2 trout.

Any significant deviation from stocking will be noted on the 2026 Fall Trout Stocking Schedule. See the schedule here: https://dep.nj.gov/njfw/fishing/freshwater/trout-fishing-information/fall-trout-stocking-schedule/

All fall-stocked waters may be fished as soon as they are stocked. There are no “closed waters” during fall stocking.
