The annual Fish Sale has been extended to twice a year, once in the spring and once in the fall (usually May & October). Orders for the fish fingerlings are taken the month prior to the sale, and purchasers come to the Lucas SWCD office on the day of delivery to pick up the live fish. A variety of fish species are available, along with recommended stocking rates for various size ponds.
