2020 Adult Trout Stocking Schedules Now Available!

The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission’s (PFBC) 2020 adult trout stocking schedules are available online at fishandboat.com and on the PFBC’s FishBoatPA mobile app. 2020 Pennsylvania fishing licenses are available for purchase online through The Outdoor Shop (pa.wildlifelicense.com), or by visiting any of the more than 700 retail license issuing agents across the state. To participate in trout fishing and keep trout, anglers ages 16 and older require both a fishing license and a trout/salmon permit.

The PFBC will continue to stock approximately 3.2 million adult trout in 707 streams and 130 lakes open to public angling. These figures, which are consistent with the number of trout stocked over the past decade, include approximately 2.2 million Rainbow Trout; 660,000 Brown Trout; and 360,000 Brook Trout. As with past practice, the average size of the trout produced for stocking is 11 inches in length.
