Directions: (900 West 100th South, Sandy Utah)
From the East: Take 100th South St. (10000 S.) in Sandy going west towards the Jordan River (It will start to meander as it approaches the river and is also know as "Shields Lane"). When you get to 900 West (just east of the bridge over the Jordan River) there's a large rock on the north side of the road which has "Sandy City Urban Fishery, 900 West Shields Lane" written on it. Take the road going north to a nearby parking lot.
From the West: Take 9800 S. going east toward the Jordan River which becomes 9400 S and then Shields Lane as it nears the river. Cross the bridge over the Jordan River and go a very short distance to 900 West where there is a large rock on the north side of the road which has "Sandy City Urban Fishery, 900 West Shields Lane" written on it. Take the road going north to a nearby parking lot.
