Stocking for Opening Day (2nd Saturday in April) began in late January this year due to historic low flow conditions at Quinebaug Hatchery. All waterbodies were stocked prior to Opening Day, but a few waterbodies did not receive their full pre-season allotments due to inclement weather; postponed or “shorted” runs were later made-up during the first week after Opening Day. In- season stocking presented it’s own set of challenges with truck breakdowns, but was successfully completed by mid-May. In all, approximately 609,000 catchable size trout produced by the three State Fish Hatcheries (Burlington, Kensington and Quinebaug), were stocked during spring 2016. Numbers were down slightly from 2015 (≈13,000). Of those stocked in 2016, approximately 553,000 adult size trout (9- 12 inch fish) were stocked throughout the season; approximately 62.7% were stocked prior to Opening Day. The remaining adult size trout were stocked between Opening Day and mid-May. A total of 54,154 trout Stocking trout into the West Branch Farmington River just greater than 12 inches was stocked this downstream of the Riverton bridge. season; some (≈1,000) were Seeforellen strain Brown Trout raised at Kensington State Fish Hatchery that averaged 16 inches in length. Additionally, a total of 14,500 yearling size trout (6-9 inch fish) were stocked into the following locations; the Farmington (5,000) and Housatonic (7,000) rivers, and an additional 2,500 yearlings into Lake Wonoskopomuc (1,000) and the Saugatuck Reservoir (1,500). -
