NYSDEC Lake Ontario Annual Report 2005 New York Lake Ontario and upper St. Lawrence River Stocking Program 2005 T. H. Eckert New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Cape Vincent, NY 13618 The New York stocking report is prepared annually stocked directly into Lake Ontario and the St.

The 2005 report includes description in the location column, and a 3 digit grid all fish stocked in New York waters of Lake Ontario number in the GD/KY column (standard grids based and its tributaries which are expected to contribute primarily on 10 minute blocks of longitude and to the open lake fish stocks and associated fisheries, latitude).

totals by species and life stage, summarizing the Hatcheries in Table 3 are designated using the New York stocking history from 1991-2005. Table abbreviations shown below.
