# Best Utah Trout Stocking Alerts and Schedules for 2026

Start with the free Utah DWR stocking table as the official source. Use UtahStockedFish for a free weekly email, TroutNotify for selected-water emails after new DWR records are detected, or CastIQ for an iPhone app with broader fishing intelligence.

## Coverage before feature count

### Qualifying job

Every listed option is verified as useful in Utah; no out-of-state product is presented as TroutNotify coverage.

### Practical fit

The official agency table is listed first in the decision path because all downstream services depend on agency publication.

### Honesty boundary

Completed stocking records are distinguished from promised future truck dates.

## What each option is actually good for

### TroutNotify

01 · Utah trout-stocking alert service

**Best for:** Following exact Utah waters

- **Price:** $39/year (as of July 2026 — verify current pricing on their site).

- **Coverage:** Utah only

Choose a watchlist and receive an email after a matching newly published Utah DWR trout row is detected. It is the paid focused option in this Utah set.

#### What it does

- Follow selected Utah lakes, ponds, and streams
- Newly published trout-stocking email alerts
- Species, quantity, average length, date, and water in each alert
- Free watchlist preview before alert activation

#### Check before choosing

- Coverage is Utah only; TroutNotify must not be presented as available in other states.
- Alerts are downstream of Utah DWR publication and scheduled checks, with no guaranteed latency.

### UtahStockedFish

02 · Free Utah stocking report and weekly email

**Best for:** A free weekly Utah summary

- **Price:** $0 (as of July 2026 — verify current pricing on their site).

- **Coverage:** Utah only

The strongest free pressure on TroutNotify: Utah DWR-derived reports and a weekly email, without the same selected-water paid workflow.

#### What it does

- Utah DWR-derived stocking reports
- Weekly stocking email
- Free access
- Utah-specific coverage

#### Check before choosing

- Coverage is Utah only.
- Weekly delivery is less event-specific than an alert after a newly published record.

### Utah DWR fish-stocking table

03 · Official Utah stocking report

**Best for:** Checking the primary public record directly

- **Price:** $0 agency resource (as of July 2026 — verify current availability and details on the agency site).

- **Coverage:** Utah

The authoritative free starting point. The table records completed stockings and can be checked directly without any third-party service.

#### Check before choosing

- It is a report to check, not a selected-water notification service.
- Publication can lag field work and records can be corrected.

### CastIQ

04 · Multi-state fishing-intelligence app

**Best for:** Utah stocking intelligence inside an iPhone app

- **Price:** $0 free tier; Pro $4.99/month or $39.99/year with a 7-day trial (as of July 2026 — verify current pricing on their site).

- **Coverage:** Official stocking data from 23 state agencies; 62,000+ waters

Utah is within CastIQ's supported agency set. It adds notifications, an upcoming calendar, weekly digest, and predictions, while using daily ingestion after publication.

#### What it does

- Stocking notifications
- Upcoming-stocking calendar
- Weekly stocking digest
- Stocking predictions

#### Check before choosing

- Coverage is limited to 23 states rather than all 50.
- The app is iPhone-only, and its daily ingestion is still downstream of agency publication.
- The App Store description lags the current site and in-app-purchase listing.
