Species

Species DEC lists for this water: Brook Trout, Brown Trout, Rainbow Trout. From DEC's recommended fishing waters dataset. DEC stars some names and does not say what the star means, so it is not shown.

Listed by DEC, absent from the 2011-2025 stocking records: Brook Trout. A statement about two datasets, not about the water. Wild, stocked before 2011, or recorded under another name.
