the staff of the Ridgewood blog
Ridgewood NJ, Beginning Monday, May 18, trucks will again roll out from the Pequest Hatchery to stock the remaining 50,000 11-inch Rainbow Trout in 31 waters throughout the state. Stocking will conclude on Thursday, May 21. There are no in-season closures and no need to wait until 5:00 p.m. on these waters.
Stocked waters will be posted each afternoon when stocking is completed in the Updates section of the Spring Trout Fishing page. This is to avoid crowds and help keep the public and our staff safe. Please remember to maintain proper social distancing while fishing and in parking areas.
