Nutmeg releases trophy trout into Saugatuck

On Saturday, March 16, Nutmeg TU, helped by children from the Trout in the Classroom program, released trophy trout at the Doc Skerlick Fly Fishing area on the Saugatuck River.

The fish were set free in a catch-and-release, fly fishing only area.

Thanks to donations from Nutmeg supporters and members, 53 rainbow and brown trout, ranging in length from 18 to 22 inches, were let loose in the Saugatuck.
