Hooked on Fish Derby coming up April 25

On Saturday, April 25, the Poulsbo Noon Lions Club and North Kitsap Future Farmers of America will host a Hooked on Fish Derby for children 11 and under, 7 am – 1 pm at the horticulture pond behind Poulsbo Junior High.

The event is free and bait is provided. Fishing poles are available on a first-come-first-served basis, so if children have poles, please bring them along.

The pond will be stocked with about 500 rainbow trout. Prizes will be awarded for the largest fish in each age category. Parents are encouraged to help, but not fish.

This is a fun-filled family activity that can help children develop a lifelong passion for fishing. Complimentary fish cleaning will be provided by NKFFA.
