When the Pennsylvania Fish & Boat Commission created the Mentored Youth Trout Day in 2013, it was one of the best decisions the agency ever made. Yet some still complain.

Rainforest-like weather, fertilized 200 lbs/ac and @HolganixAg foliar application made the 3rd cutting orchard grass boom. Too bad can't get weather to make dry squares out of it. https://t.co/4qVI0CLZjM
