Why do we toss trout when stocking? During trout stocking, hatchery staff look for appropriate locations along waterways to toss trout. This toss helps energize the fish and gets water moving through their gills. We do not dip or place the fish near the edge of the water where they are more prone to predation and other dangers. Tossing the trout also increases stocking efficiency and staff safety by preventing falls when carrying heavy nets of fish near slippery streambanks. Fish & Wildlife staf

In this video, you'll see us using a new system of transporting fish through tubing rather than buckets. Eliminating bucket stocking and using this method was successful and had the added benefit of being able to see the fish traveling through the clear tubing into the river. Here, steelhead are being stocked for sportfish restoration in Central Vermont. These are about 7-8 inches in length and came from the Ed Weed Fish Culture Station in Grand Isle.
