Fish Stocking

The National Fish Hatchery System raises and stocks over 98 million aquatic species every year to support recreational fishing, Tribal subsistence fisheries, and the recovery and restoration of imperiled species. National fish hatcheries across the country work with states and Tribes to produce and distribute fish for recreational and conservation purposes, and provide refuge for endangered species. Every year we raise approximately 73 fish species like walleye, pallid sturgeon, brown trout, and Atlantic salmon.
