About This Data

Every row comes from the stocking information published by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, checked Nov 3, 2026. Waters, species and sizes are given as the agency names them; a dash means the agency does not say. A water's fish total is given only when every stocking counted has a number.NCWRC's warmwater stocking list gives species as codes (such as LMB, BG, CC) and its page does not explain them, so they are shown as listed. Water names link to our lake page where the name and county match one, and otherwise to the water's own stocking page.
