BRULE, Wis. – The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR), along with the Douglas County Fish and Game League, Brule River Sportsmen’s Club, the Wild Rivers Chapter of Trout Unlimited and Western Lake Superior Trollers Association, will host their annual Family Fun Day at the Brule State Fish Hatchery in Brule on Saturday, Aug. 16.

This free, family-focused event will feature a variety of family fun activities. Attendees will be able to see stream shocking and fish filleting demonstrations, take guided hatchery tours, participate in fly tying and youth archery lessons, t-shirt paintings, and catch-and-release fishing.
The Brule Fish Hatchery raises Seeforellen brown trout for stocking into Lake Michigan and Lake Superior.

A valid Wisconsin fishing license is required for anyone age 16 or older to fish.
