I didn't know this and thought you might be interested. I know it states 2013, but the salmon are there for the catching.

1,087 landlocked salmon, averaging 15 inches in length, were recently stocked in three northern New Jersey lakes by the Division of Fish and Wildlife.[b] Tilcon Lake in Allamuchy Mt. State Park received 215 salmon, Lake Aeroflex in Kittatinny Valley State Park received 247 salmon, and Wawayanda Lake received 625 salmon.[/b]
The salmon were obtained from Massachusetts as 8-inch yearlings and grown at NJ Division of Fish and Wildlife's Hackettstown State Fish Hatchery over the past year.
We began stocking these large fish in November of 2013 and have received many angler reports and photos of salmon from all three lakes since. Whether it be through the ice, boat-fishing or casting from the shore, all signs point to an excellent fishery taking hold.
