What this list is

The Ministry of Natural Resources publishes the fish it stocks for recreational fishing as open data, with the district, the official name of the water, the species, the developmental stage and the number of fish, for each year. This page shows the current year and the previous one as the ministry publishes them, and totals them by species. The ministry updates the dataset once a year, so the current year fills in as the season’s records are added.

Year, not day

Unlike some provinces, Ontario’s stocking data gives the year of a release, not the date. That makes it a guide to which waters are stocked and with what, rather than a live alert of a truck arriving at a lake. For a water you plan to fish, the list tells you whether it has been stocked recently and with which species and size.

How to use it

Search the table for the water or the district you fish. Stocked lakes are a good bet for trout, splake and other stocked species, but seasons and limits are set by fisheries management zone and sometimes by water, in the Ontario fishing regulations summary; check them before keeping fish. The life stage column matters: fry and fingerlings are for future seasons, yearlings and adults can be caught sooner.

Names and places

The ministry lists each water by its official name and, where one exists, an unofficial name, with a location identifier and coordinates. Many Ontario lakes share a name, so the district column is the way to tell them apart.

Licence and credit

The data is published by the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources under the Open Government Licence – Ontario, which allows commercial reuse with attribution. The attribution line is at the foot of the table, and the dataset is linked in the sources.

Common questions

Where is Ontario’s fish stocking report?

The Ministry of Natural Resources publishes it as open data, “Fish stocking data for recreational purposes”; this page shows the current and previous year.

Does Ontario publish stocking dates?

Not in this dataset: it gives the year of each release, not the day.

How do I tell two lakes with the same name apart?

Use the district column, which comes from the ministry’s record.
