The Welaka Fish Hatchery offers an annual event for kids 5 to 15. Kids fish for free and take home what they catch. Years have varied experiences. Some years favor bags with basic fishing supplies. Some years kids may get a fishing pole, and other years kids get raffle tickets for items like bikes, tents, or more. It's always a great time!

A small but, cool place for kidsThere isn't much to do with kids in Welaka but there is the Fish Hatchery. We come here a few times during they year to visit family in Sportsman Harbor. My child just loves to see the fish here and it never seems to get old for them. They occasionally change out the aquatic species to feature various different types of local animal life. Depending on what they are rising at the hatchery, which is located just a little further south down the road. There's and observation tower but thats it. nothing much to look at with a hiking trail of the area as well. There is also Mud Spring just a bit further south on the road that features more hiking and a Florida Spring worth taking a dip in the hot summer day. **Overall, Yes its a small place but is great for all ages. They're usually open from 8a-3p daily and have open public bathrooms.

Nice place to see some fish. No one was there to ask questions but there was detailed information near each tank and further information online. It is an indoor area with a separate building for restrooms which I did not look in so do not know quality. I'll try to return someday to look into it.
