• American shadRelated: Stocking has been used to reinforce depleted American shad populations.

• Fish hatcheryRelated: Stocking is a common destination for hatchery-reared juveniles.

• MilkfishRelated: Farmers stock ponds with milkfish fry or fingerlings to begin grow-out.

• MuskellungeRelated: Managers stock muskellunge to establish or supplement populations in selected waters.

• EsoxRelated: Managers stock some Esox populations to support fisheries or alter fish communities.

• American pickerelRelated: Stocking decisions can change predator and prey communities where pickerel occur.

• AlosaRelated: Stocking has been used in efforts to restore depleted Alosa populations.

• Black bullheadRelated: Stocking has helped spread black bullheads beyond parts of their native range.
