Fish Sale
Ottawa Soil and Water Conservation District’s 2011 Fish Sale will run through Sept. 30.

Fish, which are being supplied by Fender’s Fish Hatchery, of Baltic, Ohio, include Bluegill, Channel Catfish, Fathead Minnows, Largemouth Bass, Yellow Perch, Redear Sunfish and White Amur.

White Amur, commonly known as grass carp, are members of the minnow family reported to attain weights in excess of 100 pounds and to live up to 15 years. They bear little resemblance to the common carp. Although cultured in Asia as a source of food, the sterile White Amur is primarily used in the U.S. to control aquatic vegetation.

All fish must be pre-ordered and pre-paid. To receive an order form, call 419-898-1595 or visit the OSWCD office at 240 W. Lake Street, Oak Harbor. Pick-up will be Oct. 6 at the office.
