Spread over 700 acres, the hatchery handles millions of fish eggs annually (60 million walleye eggs, for example). Last year, lakes in Cherry County alone were stocked with some 675,000 fish. Visitors are welcome during normal working hours. The hatchery also houses largemouth bass and bluegill year round. These species are allowed to spawn naturally in the hatchery ponds, and fingerlings are collected for distribution in the fall.

2023 Omaha Fish Fries and Pasta Dinners

It is a favorite tradition for many local families, with some groups “Fish Fry Hopping” to a different location each week. Many offer kids activities, a drive-thru/takeout option, and help support local churches and schools. Bit of advice: Arrive early as lines can get very long.
