EAST TEXAS’ PREMIER

FISH HATCHERY

Founded in 1983, Tyler Fish Farms has helped thousands of pond and lake owners grow and sustain trophy fish. 

After working at two private hatcheries in Texas, Bob Waldrop early in his career saw the need for pure genetics, especially Florida Bass, Coppernose Bluegill, and Threadfin Shad. This is our core philosophy. Good genetics in good habitat produces great fishing.
