A Good Read

[Wheatenheimer]

I found this to be a very interesting article in many ways. Number one being that I have been intrigued and facinated by trout fishing in the ozarks since my first trip to Taneycomo nearly 30 years ago with my Grandfather. Number two, I live within walking distance of Sequiota Park in Springfield and had no idea whatsoever that from 1921 to 1958 the state ran a coldwater hatchery at this location, then moved it to Shepard of the Hills Hatchery upon the completion of Table Rock Dam!

Thank you so much, Chief, for sharing this information with us! My eyes have been opened to do some historical research regarding my neighborhood. If only the hatchery at Sequiota was still there.............I would probably be late to work every day!

Thanks again,

Kevin
