Trout-a-Rama reels in family fun!

The McNamara Trout-a-Rama has just resurfaced. The two-year Covid-lockdown and the recent wildfire closure of forests and parks shut down this popular family fishing derby in Spryfield. The Halifax Wildlife Association (HWA) revived the sport fishing event at the beginning of June on Cunard Pond on Williams Lake. Families with kids, folks from surrounding neighbourhoods and enthusiastic groups of fishing buddies arrived early, eager to register, hook their free worms, and start casting. [photo: Cathy Vaughan]
