FISH Day

The 9th Annual FISH Day is scheduled for April 1, 2021. FISH stands for Friends Improving Smithville Habitat.  The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Missouri Department of Conservation, Clay County Parks Department, and Burtons Bait and Tackle organize the event and request volunteers to help place large brush piles in Smithville Lake.  The event was created in 2012.  To date, the group has installed over 800 brush piles that serve as cover for fish.  This year's GPS coordinates and maps will be available on the home page under brochures and maps soon. If you are interested in volunteering for this event, RSVP to Eric Dennis at 816-271-3100.

Brush Pile maps and GPS coordinates are available on the home page under the Brochures and Maps section.
