Bennett Spring Trout Season Opener 3/01/14

I enjoyed the traditional Trout Season Opener on March 1st down at Bennett Spring. We saw Milt Barr (next to Gov. Nixon) blow the whistle on his 50th opening day there (what a feat, huh?). I think there were about 1,500 tags sold; down from most years. Here's a short (not too well done) video too I did at the opening whistle, and also added a link to a professional video done that day (24 minutes long) which I'm in at about minute 10 watching Milt and then taking pictures.

Trout Stocking at Shawnee Mission Park

I had a great time at the spring trout stocking over at Shawnee Mission Park this afternoon, 3/14/2014. Johnson County also stocked Kill Creek Lake and Heritage Lakes earlier in the day. The fish came down from Nebraska again, and about 1,000 pounds. Here are some photos and a video. The kids were pretty excited.
