Description: KIDFISH community events are more like a fishing tournament, are typically held in city parks throughout Texas, and are designed to promote fishing, the outdoors, and simply spending time with family. KIDFISH, together with community leaders and local media work to publicize the event through television and radio PSA’s as well as in schools and throughout the community by distributing registration forms.

KIDFISH generously stocks the pond prior to the event in order to increase the children’s odds of a memorable fishing experience. Everything the child will need to catch a fish (i.e. rod, reel, bait, and tackle) will be provided to those who need it.

During KIDFISH, children participate in a “KIDFISH College”, a brief presentation on fishing, conservation, and respect for the environment, the fish, and other anglers. Upon completion participants receive a “Bachelor of Angling” Degree and are then allowed to fish.

The tournament is broken down into 3 different age categories (6 & under, 7-11, and 12-16). The winners of each age group qualifies for the KIDFISH Classic, our by invitation only tournament held each summer.
