    Update! The tournament this year will also feature some public programs from 2-4 pm. During this time you can learn about how trout are spawned at the hatchery, learn about raising trout with a hatchery tour, you can practice casting a fly rod with instructions and you can watch and learn how to tie flies for catching more fish! We hope you’ll stop out to join us on Saturday, October 5 at the Manchester Fish Hatchery!
