As warm weather approaches many of us are gearing up for the spring and summer fishing seasons. The five state fish culture stations are gearing up as well.

Trophy stocking
2009 will see the continuation of the VT “trophy” fish stocking program. The number of trophy fish (2YR +) stocked will be close to 25,000 statewide. Nearly 30 miles of streams and rivers designated as trophy water will be available for angling this year in Vermont. In addition 41 ponds and lakes will be stocked with trophy fish. 2009 will be an exciting year of angling if you like catching big fish.

Yearlings/Smolts
Inland waters of Vermont will be stocked with over 295,000 yearling landlocked salmon, brook, brown, lake, and rainbow trout. This area encompases over 500 miles of streams and rivers, and over 70,000 acres of lakes, and ponds.

Lake Champlain will be stocked with over 290,000 yearling landlocked salmon, steelhead, brown, lake, and rainbow trout. And over 160,000 landlocked salmon fry, and over 150,000 walleye fingerlings.

Its hard to think about open water fishing when there is two feet of snow on the ground but spring is right around the corner. So get your rod and reel ready, and tune up your boat because 2009 should be and exciting year on the water, and remember if you have the oportunity, take a kid fishing.
