Gov. Patrick, Students Stock Jamaica Pond [VIDEO] - Brookline Patch

Gov. Deval Patrick alongside state wildlife officials and JFK Elementary School students helped stock Jamaica Pond from the banks of Jamaica Pond Thursday morning.

The students took buckets of fish to the shore and helped 1,250 rainbow, brook, brown and tiger trout swim away.

Here is some additional information on the annual event from the state Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs:

This stocking event is part of an annual program that distributes various species of trout to 500 bodies of water throughout the Commonwealth. This year, the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife (MassWildlife) will release more than 510,000 trout produced at state-operated hatcheries in Belchertown and Sandwich. The 60-foot deep pond, the largest body of freshwater in Boston, is also home to snapping turtles, crayfish, eels and clams.?

Here is a list of trout-stocked waters around Massachusetts and other fishing information.
