Salisbury, MD – The water at the Salisbury City Park will be packed with fish for children to catch during Wicomico Recreation’s Annual Free Youth Fishing Derby.
This year’s Fishing Derby is set for Saturday, June 4, at the Salisbury City Park. Registration opens at 8 a.m., with fishing from 9-11 a.m. Food and drinks will be provided for youth participants after that, and there will also be trophies awarded. Among the categories children can compete in are Most Fish Caught, Most Unusual Catch and Biggest Fish.
The Fishing Derby is for boys and girls age 15 and younger, and participants should bring their own bait and rods. The Department of Natural Resources will be adding about 500 blue gills to the pond’s catfish, largemouth bass, perch and carp.

One of the few really down to earth things left provided by the county at little to no expense to residents.. I remember going to this way back in the 60's and it's been around all this time.
ReplyDeleteAt least one good thing left for kids thats good fun. Hopefully it will remain another 50 years.
