Trout Day is a celebration of the rebirth of one of the nation’s finest urban fishing destinations and an introduction to fishing for children 6-13. Festivities include a kids-only fishing pier, free equipment loans, fishing clinics, snacks and giveaways and most importantly, a lake fully stocked with big fish. [/size][/green][/font][/left] [left][font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3] [/size][/green][/font][/left] [left][font "Poor Richard"][green][size 3]Lake Merced is on the road to recovery after decades of degradation due to urban pressures. Thanks to the dedication and hard work of California Trout and its San Francisco-area conservation partners, water levels have nearly doubled since the historic lows of the 1990s and the general health of the Lake has rebounded markedly.
