How often are the lakes and ponds stocked with trout? How big are the fish?
Our lakes and ponds are stocked 2 to 3 times a year. One to two times in the early and late spring and once in the fall. The fish we plant come in 3 categories, 1st year, 2nd year, and 3rd year. 1st year fish are about 12 to 16 inches long. 2nd year fish are about 15 to 20 inches and 3rd year fish are about 3 to 8 pounds.
How often do you get new properties?
We are always looking to find new locations. Currently, we are pursuing another warm-water fishery.
Can I bring my dog?
Yes and No. It depends on which property you are heading to. You will need to check the Master Property list or the flier. Where dogs are allowed, they must be kept on a leash at all times in the presence of members, or until permission is granted by all members present to allow your dog off-leash. Members are responsible for cleaning up after their dogs and any damage they may cause.
Where do the fees and dues go?
Explained, not for profit.
