STOCKING
     The Hatchery was put in place to foster rehabilitation of the genetically unique native Lake Trout strain in our local area. It is intended to augment natural lake trout reproduction in our local lakes while using state of the art technologies in an environmentally sensitive and sustainable manner.

     This year, the Hatchery stocked trout that it raised from eggs collected 15 months previously into the following lakes: L’Amable, Jamieson, Holland, McCauley and Lavallee as outlined in the chart below.
Lake stocked Time of stocking Quantity of Fish * Number trips to lake
L’Amable May 4th 2100 6 loads
Jamieson May 5th 600 2 loads
Holland May 4th 400 2 loads
McCauley May 6th 1100 3 loads
Lavallee May 5th 1100 3 loads
* The Hatchery has held back approximately 60 fish for visitors to enjoy on tours. These fish will be released in the fall with the second round of stocking.

   This chart outlines stocking in previous years.
