Rock Creek Fish Hatchery


A favorite place for area fisherman is Rock Creek Lake located 4 miles north and a mile east of Parks, Nebraska.  The hatchery was founded in 1924 to produce fish for lakes around the area.  The lake is fed by cold springs which insert about 2500 gallons of 57 degree water per minute into it making it ideal for producing both cold and warm water fish.
