Pendills Creek National Fish Hatchery

You will want to make Pendills Creek National Fish Hatchery a top destination during your trip through the scenic Hiawatha National Forest in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. The hatchery is located just a stone's throw away from the breathtaking Lake Superior shoreline with ample parking at the hatchery maintained access. Pendills Creek National Fish Hatchery has produced lake trout for stocking into the Great Lakes since 1951 and continues to support restoration efforts for this species. Feel free to explore the hatchery on a self-guided tour or call ahead and bring a group to experience seasonal hatchery operations and to see what a million tiny lake trout look like in their temporary homes called raceways.
