Fish Nursery


The Ickesburg Sportsmen's Association is a cooperative nursery with the PA Fish and Boat Commission. Each year, we raise 5000 to 6000 trout in our nursery for stocking in local streams. The fish are provided by the Fish Commission, but we must maintain the nursery and purchase the feed.
