Looking for Some Family Fun? Check Out the Century Trout Farm
Century Trout Farm, located two miles south of
Oregon on Hwy 14, received a fresh load of rainbow trout on April 20, making
fishing again excellent. Many area families enjoy spending an hour or so
fishing in the park-like setting. The best part, Mark or Jean clean the
fish for you! You're also welcome to bring a basket of food and use the
picnic tables at no charge.
Fish now range in size from 10" to nearly
20." Mark and Jean prefer you bring your own fishing equipment, but they have free cane poles for those
who need them. Later this month Mark hopes to have rental fishing equipment
available.
The mute swans are again starting a family, much as they
have for the past 20 years. The female is incubating five eggs, which
hopefully will hatch in late May. Fishing clients enjoy looking at the
nest hidden off in the woods behind the main pond. Father swan won't let
you get too close, however. To learn more about the trout farm, checkout
