Kid's Fishing Event

ABOUT

Lockerly’s beloved bi-annual fishing event is back, and kids 16 and under are invited to cast a line into a freshly stocked pond teeming with over 1,000 fish—some of them big enough to put up a real fight! Thanks to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, the pond is ready and waiting for young anglers to reel in a great catch. The event is free to attend, and each child may take home up to five fish. Children must be accompanied by an adult (one adult per two children), and participants should bring their own rods, reels, tackle, and a bucket or stringer. Lockerly provides hot dogs for bait, but feel free to bring worms if you prefer. Come enjoy a fun-filled day of fishing and outdoor adventure at Lockerly Arboretum!
