The stocking trucks from the Pequest Trout Hatchery completed their work on May 28, stocking nearly 600,000 trout throughout the state. Those trout were in addition to some of the 26,000 two to five pound bruisers still in the water from stockings in the fall and winter. And they were kept company prior to opening day by some of the more than 6,000 two to five pounders which are stocked during the spring season. By spring's end, trout were placed in 89 streams and 90 ponds and lakes throughout New Jersey. Fortunately for the state's anglers, trout remain available throughout the summer in many waters.
