How it started

Henry Engelhard started selling fish sandwiches in front of his house to pay his daughter’s college tuition-- his sales grew until 1978 when it became The Fish Sandwich Festival.

The festival still offers the original mullet sandwich made from fish caught locally. In addition to the sandwiches, there are a variety of activities to entertain the entire family all weekend long!

In 2013, the Festival started offering whitefish and walleye sandwiches in addition to mullet and they were an instant hit!
