Trout and stocking

So no volunteer is allowed to carry a bucket...are they going to just put them in at the bridges?
So now there will be 20 people at one hole...
3' apart... what's the difference of having help stocking, don't get it

    That's why I fish from a boat on a lake for the first day.

    thunderpole yeah they do but the majority  don't swim that far from where they are put in ,  I help with a lot of stocking  in beaver and lawrence county , the transferred employees from other departments are not going to carry buckets, they don't want to be on a truck they want to be back in the office, so they will just shoot them in at the bridges with the hoses. it a shame there is usually not that many people helping to begin with but the ones that do try to spread them out as much as possible. plus from what I thought I. read that some allocations would be pre season and in season stocking all at one time

    Even when people carry the buckets they still don’t go to far from the trucks. Hope it rains that should help spread some out.

    I'm not a big stockie guy myself I like them brownies, but the areas I do fish stockies I assure you no-one is carrying bucks in there and there's plenty of fish that move around

    My two favorite stocked streams are typically float stocked in order to spread the fish out. Many of the spots I favor are a half mile of tough wading or more from any access point. One has already been stocked. I’ll have to check on the other.

    Everything I say can be fully substantiated by my own opinion.

    Trout Stockings 🤔 Is this some new product like Tommy Copper Stockings..... OooooK I'm going... I'm going.

    But first, not likely to be any "bucket brigade(s)" until fall stocking schedule.
