Located along the St Clair River, just north of the Bluewater Bridge, is the location of the Bluewater Anglers fish hatchery.
According to the groups website:
The Bluewater Anglers have been in the fish raising business since 1982 with the introduction of rainbow trout into a two tank training facility at the Lambton County Water Supply facility located at the head of the St. Clair River. Several years later the anglers built an indoor facility for the annual rearing of 150,000 Chinook Salmon and 25,000 Rainbow Trout. The Rainbows stay in the hatchery until mid to late May and grow quickly to a 7" size. They are stocked within Sarnia city limits. Salmon, Rainbows and Browns are kept in an outside pond to grow to adult size for spectacular fish viewing. They
are always eager to jump for food from the vending machines located on site. Don't miss this treat if you are in the Bluewater Bridge area
