Never trout fished in the Fall & am looking at doing some fishing next week. I checked the website for a few counties & there are no stockings. Do they stock creeks/rivers in the Fall or only in the Spring? Or have they just not started stocking b/c of low water?
 
They stock creeks and lakes in the fall, but they don't stock an abundance of waters in the fall. The stockings are limited, and not every county gets a fall trout stocking. Which county are you looking for? Chester County has a fall stocking on the one branch of the Brandywine. Kettle Creek gets a fall stocking up in Potter. Greenwood Lake gets a fall stocking in Huntingdon Co. They are few and far between, and they tend to be in more popular areas and/or heavily utilized fisheries. I would assume (but I didn't check) that one of the Sinnemahoning streams gets stocked, such as the First Fork. I don't know, pick a county and browse the list. If you don't see anything for that county, select an adjacent one until you find a fall stocking. Or....go find some wild fish.
