The West Virginia Division of Natural Resources will begin fall trout stockings during the weeks of Oct. 21 and Oct. 28. During these two weeks, the governor said on his website, the WVDNR will stock 35,000 pounds of trout weighing 1-2 pounds and 6,500 pounds of monster trout weighing 3-6 pounds at 40 lakes and streams around the state. The third annual Monster Trout Contest will return at the same time, and that means 100 monster trout with a bright pink tag will make the anglers who catch them eligible for a prize.
