Pond Fish Orders Due
April 2, 2026 @ 8:00 am – 4:00 pm
Orders for the annual pond fish sale are due today. The fish and pond products are supplied by Fender’s Fish Hatchery.
Orders must be picked up Friday, April 10 from 8:30 – 10:00 a.m. at the Richland County Fairgrounds near the Horse Barn at the East Gate.
- Arrive at the Fairgrounds between 8:30 and 10:00 a.m.
- Bring enough containers to hold the purchased fish. 5-gallon buckets work well. Each container must have an unscented ply liner (30 gallon trash bag). The bags are necessary to hold oxygen to keep the fish alive during transport. Do not use a lid; use a twist tie or twine to close the bag. Each container should be filled 1/3 full with water from the pond you are stocking.
- General rule of thumb: One container per 100 small fish, one container per 1,000 minnows, one container per 4-5 amurs.
- Please help with the loading and unlading of your containers into your vehicle to expedite the delivery process.
