Fish Stocking. In recent years OC Parks has accommodated the increased interest in fishing and fishing derbies. The Contractor will be required to negotiate the stocking of approximately 15,600 lbs. of Catfish and 28,500 lbs. of Trout annually. There will be an occasional request to stock small amounts of Bass, Sunfish, Bluegill, or mosquito fish. The amount of fish to be stocked may increase or decrease annually at OC Parks discretion. Stocking OC Parks Lakes requires a predetermined plan and contract arrangement with one or more fish farms. The plan will be negotiated with the Contractors PM prior to the stocking season. The week of stocking dates will be rigid once the plan is approved. The California Department of Fish & Wildlife (CA-DFW) requires annual application for private stocking permit (PSP) with the proposed stocking locations, species and amounts. The Contractor will be responsible for submitting the application to the CA-DFW. CA-DFW will periodically provide trout and/or catfish stockings at the following Lakes: Clark, Craig, TriCity, Carbon Canyon, Yorba, Mile Square or Laguna Niguel. The County of Orange will not be notified in advance of a stocking event or be provided with the amount being planted. Pre-payment for up to 4 weeks of fish stocking will be negotiated due to the Cash on Delivery demand for this commodity.
