Carrollton’s Parks and Recreation and the Texas Junior Anglers (TJA) program will host a free youth fishing event for children 16 and under. Registration will take place the morning of the event; there is no pre-registration. The Josey Ranch Park pond will be generously stocked with adult catfish. Prizes and trophies will be awarded to winners in the three age categories.
The pond will be opened to licensed adults at the conclusion of the event. It is recommended that children bring their own equipment; however, TJA will provide loaner rods, reels, bait and tackle to those who need them.
Texas Junior Anglers is a non-profit outreach program designed to educate young Texans regarding aquatic stewardship and conservation of natural resources.
