In Oregon, more people fish for trout than for any other kind of fish. Each year millions of fish are caught by young children catching their first fish and by long-time anglers with years of experience. They’re caught in ponds, lakes and rivers. They’re caught with worms, spinners, flies and lures.
Trout Stocking Schedule
ODFW stocks over 7 million trout a year in ponds, lakes and reservoirs throughout the state. The stocking schedule lists where and approximately when trout will be stocked. You’ll also find directions to many of the stocking locations.
