"A bad day of fishing is better than a good day at work."
 – Fishing Adage

Over 1,250 children and their parents have attended the La Crosse event since 2012. As this event coincides with Wisconsin DNR’s "Free Fishing Weekend"; adults won't need licenses to join their children and fish on the 6th. 

The bait for the fishing event is again being donated by Ace Hardware of La Crosse. 

The first 125 children registered to attend and attending (aged 2-16) will receive a fishing rod, reel, and a light lunch - Courtesy of the Western Wisconsin AFL-CIO and the Union Sportsmen’s Alliance.

The event is free but advanced registration is recommended.
