Weekly trout stocking schedule
Each year, ODFW stocks millions of trout in dozens of reservoirs, lakes and ponds throughout the state. You can use the search and filter functions to search the stocking schedule for specific locations and dates. The schedule is subject to change without notice; see individual waterbody listings in the Recreation Report for updates.
The schedule shows the WEEK a waterbody will be stocked, not the exact date. The Monday dates listed indicate the START of the week.
There can be changes to the stocking schedule
Some waterbodies may not be stocked as scheduled because of poor water conditions, and these fish will be diverted to another location. In other cases, stocking may happen a week before/after the scheduled date due to logistical challenges. Staff may need to make these decisions quickly, and not have time to update the stocking database.
Please check the weekly Recreation Report for any changes to the stocking schedule.
