Massachusetts Trout Stocking Schedule Spring 2016

Posted by Wayne G. Barber

Close to 500,000 brook, brown, rainbow, and tiger trout will be stocked this spring from MassWildlife’s five hatcheries located in Sandwich, Palmer, Belchertown, Sunderland, and Montague. The close to 500,000 fish being stocked this spring, coupled with the more than 66,000 12+ inch trout stocked last fall, should provide some excellent fishing in the coming months. Stocking is scheduled to begin in the southeastern area of the state during the first full week of March with other regions of the state expected to follow soon after.
Link to the Stocking Schedules below for the latest stocking information (these pages are updated each Friday by noon) or view Trout Stocked Waters for a list of Massachusetts waters that are usually stocked in the spring and fall. Contact your local MassWildlife District Office for more information.
