Always the first Friday in June, this long standing tradition is geared at getting children ages 7-12 interested in fishing. Pre-registration is available for either session. Sessions are limited to 300 children and run from 9:00am - 11:00am and again from 1:00pm - 3:00pm. Fishing tackle and bait are provided. Do not bring any personal fishing gear. No license or tag required. Four trout limit and no catch and release allowed. Volunteers will be on hand to clean your fish and pack them on ice. A cooler is recommended to keep the fish fresh. Registration accepted the day of the event, or in advance starting in May. Please call the Hatchery to register at 417-451-0554.
