The Awesome Fish Spawning Place.
Today I went to the most awesome fish spawning place, Spring Creek Fish Hatchery, where we learned lots of stuff; these are just a few examples:

Did you know that fish called jacks are about two years old?

Did you know that a female fish lays about 1,500 eggs a year?

Did you know that people who work here cut open fish and spill the eggs out?

Did you know that if a fish is still wriggling when they have put it through a chemical machine that knocks them out they smack a club over there head?

Did you know that with hatchery fish they clip the adipose fin which identifies them as a hatchery fish?

All over all it was a good day.








Question of the day: What is your favorite marine animal?
