12:00pm-4:00pm-Grayling Fish Hatchery, 4890 West North Down River Road. The Great Lakes Council will have the FFI Fly Casting Skills Development Course set up on the grounds of the hatchery for all to try out. Fly Casting instruction and Fly Tying instruction will also be available.

We’re a non-profit educational facility where visitors learn about this historic site, the trout common in Mich-igan streams, the environmental concerns in our area, and the value of Michigan’s stream trout fisheries. Our mission is preserve, protect, and enhance the Au Sable River by educating our guests about the history, ecolo-gy, and importance of this great river.

We do not charge an admission fee to enter the hatchery. Instead, we rely on generous donations to maintain the property, sustain the self-guided tour, and feed our fish. Any donation, no matter how large or small, is greatly appreciated.
