Special Kids Division (under 16) – Free Entry!

The goal of the Kids Division is to teach children that fishing can be funClick photo to enlarge! and that it is also fun and good to release fish. Kids entry is FREE and all they have to do to be entered into the Kid’s Division drawing is to catch and release any fish (any species, any size). We will draw names from a hat full of all the kids’ names that released a fish for the prizes.

With the help from sponsors (including Coastside Fishing Club) there will be enough prizes so that every kid goes home with something! Last year we had 56 kids entered and the goal this year is to have 80 kids registered.
