“Salmon in the Classroom” is a part of the science curriculum at Saugatuck Public Schools.  Every year, after the sixth graders raise Chinook Salmon in an aquarium and learn about the Salmon life cycle, a bunch of local fisherman (Captain Mike included) take the Saugatuck Sixth Graders out for a day of fishing.

This year we had four kids on board including my daughter, Delaney, and my niece Isabella.  Although winter was hanging on longer than we like and temperatures weren’t that warm yet, we did manage to help the kids catch seven fish!
