Stocking will take place on Monday, June 6 at the Green Island Dept. of Environmental Conservation (DEC) dock at 10 am, and on Tuesday, June 7 at the Hague public dock at 10 am.  Four volunteer boats are needed for each day.  Upon arrival at the dock, each volunteer will receive a big trash can to fill with lake water onboard their boat.  Volunteers will then transfer salmon into the trash can from the DEC&#8217;s stocking truck.  Next, volunteers will drive out into deeper water to release the salmon. <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;It is a lot of fun to stock the fish around the Lake. Hard work, but a lot of fun seeing those thousands of 5&#8243; &#8211; 7&#8243; salmon with brilliant colors swim away from the boat after being put in the Lake,&#8221; says John Schaninger, past president and current member of the Lake George Fishing Alliance.   <\/p>\n<p>If you can help with this year&#8217;s salmon stocking effort, please contact Emily DeBolt at the Lake George Association at 518-668-3558.
