Another Trip to the SC Fish Hatchery March 8 2019

It was another winter's rainy day, but Owen was visiting  Bobby and Valerie for the weekend, and we had decided he might enjoy a trip to the Walhalla trout fishery.  The rain wasn't too bad, although we didn't want to picnic there or walk around too much.
All in all, it was just  nice to get together.

 

The hatchery is located on the Chattooga River.  This is the east fork of the river.  A boardwalk bridge connects the picnic area to the hatchery.

Owen asks, "What rain?"

One of the hatchery rangers  shares "fish tales" with Bobby.  We were glad to get inside from the rain where there was a wood burning stove to help us warm up.  This fellow said, like the others I asked on my last visit, that this is the best job there could ever be.

Bobby hopes to say this is the one that didn't get away when he has a chance to fish the Chattooga.
