West Virginia trout stocking
WVDNR does not publish stocking dates in advance. Which waters were stocked is posted after the fact — by the end of each business day on the agency's stocking page, plus a weekly roundup post (for example "WVDNR stocks 46 waters during week of Jan. 5").
Check what's stocked right now
We can't publish today's stocking as a fact on this page — WVDNR doesn't offer a feed we can read live, so any date we printed here could go stale or wrong. This is the fastest real answer:

Stocking runs through the cold months into spring. Missed stockings from bad weather are made up with extra runs or added fish on the next scheduled visit.
What we left out on purpose
- WVDNR does not publish a per-water advance schedule, and the after-the-fact posting isn't offered as structured data — only as a web page and a phone hotline. We link to both instead of listing individual stocking dates, which we can't keep current or correct without a live feed.
