Depending on weather and access to water, broodstock salmon stocking will begin in mid-December and will be completed by the end of the year. This year, each district will receive 60 fish, all from the Division of Fisheries and Wildlife’s Roger Reed State Fish Hatchery in Palmer. The fish will range in size from 5 to 18 pounds, with an average weight of about 10 pounds each. There will be no broodstock salmon available from the White River National Fish Hatchery in Bethel, Vermont, this year due to the extensive damage to the hatchery from flood waters caused by Tropical Storm Irene earlier this fall. To find out which lakes and ponds are stocked, contact the DFW District office in Ayer (978) 772-2145; Belchertown (413) 323-7632; Bourne (508) 759-3406; Dalton (413) 684-1646; or West Boylston (508) 835-3607. When stocking is complete, the list of stocked water bodies will be posted on the DFW website at: MassWildlife - Broodstock Salmon Stocking (http://www.mass.gov/dfwele/dfw/fisheries/anadromous/broodstock_salmon_stocking.htm).

Or we can just follow around a certain fisherman who hangs around this web site that just shot a bear to know where the best salmon fishing is.
