Follow the fish as they return to the Mystic River to spawn!

Stop by the Mystic Lakes Dam for our Herring Open House, where you can see the herring run, help us count eels (who are making the reverse commute), chat with MyRWA’s Executive Director and MyRWA staff, and meet other engaged community members.

Historically, this week in May has yielded the highest herring count— thanks to the efforts of our herring monitors. You can learn more about the river herring run here.
