At least 2,600 rainbow trout are lurking in Murphy City Hall Pond, waiting for young anglers competing in the 9th Annual Rainbow Trout Roundup.

The event will be held from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Feb. 25, and is open to all fishermen under 18 years of age.

There is no charge to participate, parents or guardians may assist younger anglers and you don’t have to be a Murphy resident to take part. No fishing license is required but contestants must register online or in person.
