N.H. Fish Stocking Report
Greetings and welcome to the New Hampshire
fish stocking report.
July 31: Fish stocking is over for the season, so
this report is now suspended until next spring. Thanks for reading, and we'll
look forward to reporting to you again next year. Here is some info about fish
stocking from fisheries chief Steve Perry:
"Fish stocking occurs primarily
from mid-March to early July. There are several reasons for this, the foremost
is related to water temperatures. Since trout cannot tolerate water temperatures
when they warm to the mid-70s, they need to be stocked prior to the onset
of this occurrence. Secondly is the need for grow out space for the next year's
production of trout. As the young trout start to increase substantially in
weight during the spring and summer months, their densities need to be spread
out among the available rearing containers in order to minimize problems that
can arise from over-crowding conditions.
"What is occurring at the present
time (late July) with respect to stocking is essentially the release
of surplus fish into suitable waters. This occurs because hatcheries typically
rear approximately 10% more fish than what are needed to meet stocking targets
as a safeguard to cover any potential unforeseen losses due to disease or
other causes. This safety margin is adjusted periodically as inventory counts
take place, such as occurs when fish densities are being thinned by moving
the young fish to empty rearing containers. This ensures that the hatcheries
are only carrying what they need to carry and provides occasional bonus stockings
to select waters."
The N.H. Fish Stocking Report web page is made
possible by SB 340, which allows the Executive Director of N.H.
Fish and Game to provide past stocking information on a weekly basis.

for an update every Thursday between March and July. If you want to be reminded to visit this stocking page, click
