From an email from the New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife:

The NJDEP Division of Fish and Wildlife will be releasing 9,500 yearling brown and rainbow trout just in time for the long Thanksgiving weekend. 

The trout, 8 to 10 inches in length, will be distributed into 23 lakes around the state beginning Monday, November 24.

This winter stocking is in addition to the 25,000 trout released in 17 streams and 14 lakes in October.

A number of those trout, including some of the 500 large rainbow broodstock, still remain for anglers.
