October 28th 2015 – Members from Muskies Inc Chapter 50 met at both Lake Nockamixon and Marsh Creek to meet the stocking truck from Wisconsin’s Gallon Bait and Fish Farm, and take delivery of 750 12″-14″ advanced fingerlings. These fish were purchased with the funds raised through generous supporters of the cause – improving the muskie fishery in Eastern Pennsylvania. Working along with the PA Fish and Boat Commission – supplemental stocking has been going on for years. To date, the results have been tremendous. We began stocking Marsh Creek with purchased purebreds in 2006, and the lake has yielded pures up to mid-40 inch mark. Lake Nockamixon was added to our list on 2012 – and one of our members caught a 30 and 33 inch, likely stocked in 2012, following the stocking of todays fish. Awesome! Thank you to all of our sponsors and supporters! Collectively, we are making a diference!
