Free Fish Day

Silverton Together and the Izaak Walton League partner to provide this fun family event held at the Silverton Reservoir in June. Oregon Fish and Wildlife staff amply stocks the lake. Families catch a shuttle bus provided by First Student Bus Co. and are greeted at the reservoir with refreshments including hotdogs for the whole family, fishing equipment, bait and supplies, as well as fishing “buddies” for first-timers. This past year over 400 community members enjoyed a great day of making friends, being together as a family and fishing. Other partners include the City of Silverton, Silverton Kiwanis, Sunshine Bait, and the Silverton Police and Fire Departments.
