St Mary's State Fish Hatchery, OH

Monaco Travelers trip to the State Fish Hatchery in St Mary's. Really interesting film on how they collect the eggs by milking fish then fertilise them. Surprised at how much work goes into the process and most get released into state waters when they're around 1 1/2 inches long. They hatch walleye, yellow perch, catfish and saugeye, a hybrid walleye and sauger. In the holding tank below are blue catfish which they get as fry and release when they're around 6 inches.
Great lunch afterwards at La Carreta, a Mexican restaurant in Celina, check the chairs.Read more
