Division of Fish and Wildlife stocks more than 200 waters with catchable-size fish, primarily brook, brown and rainbow trout. Warmwater anglers also have a field day in New Jersey. In recent years the Division has been stocking several introduced game and panfish species, including northern pike, tiger and "true" muskellunge, walleye, hybrid striped bass and channel catfish into the lakes and rivers of the state.
