Abstract:

In part three of a three-part series, Wilson recounts the rise of the modern fish hatchery system in North Carolina. The state has a long history of artificial fish propagation dating back to 1877. The modern period began in 1925 when the North Carolina General Assembly appropriated $500,000 to build five new hatcheries around the state.
