Learn to Fish

Join us at Shepherd of the Hills Fish Hatchery for a fun morning of fishing at Belladona Pond! This beginner-friendly program will introduce you to the basics of fishing, including how to set up a fishing pole, how to cast, and how to safely handle a fish.

Whether you’ve always wanted to try fishing or simply don’t know where to start, this program is a great way to learn the fundamentals in a relaxed and welcoming environment.

Conservation Tour

Welcome Summertime with a guided public tour of the Shepherd of the Hills Fish Hatchery! Join a Naturalist to learn the difference between the Rainbow and Brown Trout raised at the hatchery, then visit the raceways and discover the amazing trout-raising process! And for just a quarter, you can feed the fish, too! Tours will meet at the large trout aquarium inside the Conservation Education Center.
