Trout Stocking on the Southern Oregon Coast — 2026 Guide
Each spring and early summer, the Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife (ODFW) releases thousands of hatchery-raised trout into lakes, ponds, and other public waters across Oregon — including in the famed Southern Oregon Coast zone. These stockings create excellent opportunities for family fishing trips, weekend outings, and trophy trout hunts. Trout stocking schedules are published online and list the week a waterbody is expected to be stocked (the week starting on Monday), not exact days.
