Youth Fishing Event

The first Saturday in June is designated as a free fishing day by the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department (TPWD), so everyone can come and have fun. No license is necessary. The pond in the Josey Ranch Sports Complex will be generously stocked with adult catfish.

Prizes and trophies will be awarded to the children who catch the longest and second longest fish in three age categories: 6 and under, 7-11, and 12-16 years of age.
It is recommended that children bring their own equipment; however, loaner rods, reels, bait, and tackle will be provided to those who need them as supplies.

There will be volunteers from The Colony Bass Club and Dallas Fly Fishers on-site to answer any fishing questions and to help educate the youth on baiting the hook and casting.

On-site registration will be available at the event.
For more information, call 972-466-9811.
