Corry State Fish Hatchery. Established in 1876 by the Pennsylvania Fish Commission as the 'Western Hatchery,' it is the longest continuously operated fish hatchery in the Commonwealth. Supplied by abundant springs of uniform flow and temperature, it is considered the state's pioneer trout hatchery. Its success had a positive effect on the state economy, led to the creation of many jobs related to outdoor recreation, and helped stimulate Pennsylvania's sport-fishing prominence.
