You and all your friends and kids are invited to do a little fishing at the RI DEM Carolina Hatchery.

Date:    Wednesday June 2, 2010

Time:  5:00 PM 9:00 PM

Location:  RI DEM Carolina Trout Hatchery. 13 Old Richmond Townhouse Rd.

Directions:  Rt. 138 to Rt. 112 South past Washington County Fairgrounds, Take a right 

   at the new Fire Department building.   

   

During the flooding back in April 30,000 trout where washed out of their holding pens into a large pond that is full of large Trophy Bass.  These trout will all die once the water temperature rises. When they die the ammonia in the water will kill everything.

RI  FLW/TBF members will be on hand to help,  Berkley has donated all the bait and  DEM staff will be working collecting the fish we catch and putting them back to their proper holding pens.  These fish are starving and are biting everything. In just a couple hours 2 weeks ago we caught over 500 fish and relocated them safely.

I hope to have over 100 volunteers all pitching in to Help Save the Fish  so grab a pole and come on down. You will catch a fish, Guaranteed!

Can I throw swimbaits?   ;D

If I was only visiting the in-laws
