While daily trout stockings are not announced in advance, the WVDNR publishes a list of recently stocked waters at
WVdnr.gov/fish-stocking. Anglers may also find out what waters have been stocked by calling the stocking hotline at 304-558-3399.
In inclement weather, missed stockings are made up by either additional stocking runs or additional fish are added to upcoming stocking events. For more information about trout stocking locations, anglers should check pages 6–7 in the 2025 Fishing Regulations Summary, available to download at
WVdnr.gov/fishing-regulations.
All anglers 15 years and older are required to have a West Virginia fishing license and a valid form of identification while fishing in the state of West Virginia. Trout stamps are required for those fishing for trout. Licenses and stamps may be purchased online at
WVfish.com.
