Reference information:
Maybe not the exact term you are looking for - but 'settefisk' is young fish put into a river or lake to augment the existing stock. Another method is 'rognplanting', where the planting happens when the fish is still at the roe stage to assist in natural selection.

Restocking would then be the activity of adding 'settefisk' to the existing stock. Bestandsforbedring, fiskeutsetting, akvakultur - put stocking in a sentence and let's see what can be done with it. For a laugh, try Google Translate on the wikipedia entry for stocking - you will see things you never dreamed you could do with STRØMPER (socks).
