The Fish On! Series takes place annually on Tuesday evenings in February.

Wild Trout Close to Home will provide participants the tools they need to move beyond stocked trout and chase some of Massachusetts' most underappreciated fish. The seminar will include tips on the best seasons, tackle, and tactics to catch wild brook and brown trout. Participants will also learn how to find secret small streams of their own.

Spencer Belson has been chasing wild trout in small streams throughout New England for years, but has developed a special passion for the native brook trout in local Massachusetts streams. As a high school student with limited travel abilities, Spencer has honed his craft on blue lines within a couple hours of his home in Andover. He also works to protect these special fish with Trout Unlimited and Native Fish Coalition. You can find out more about Spencer on his website, thecurrentangler.com.

Fishing videos will be shown starting at 6:00pm. Join us for discussion and raffles. Spencer's presentation will start at 7:00pm.

This series is sponsored by the Friends of Memorial Hall Library.
