Fish the mighty Mississippi



Anyone who wants to try fishing is invited to family fishing events happening at four locations over four days along the Mississippi River.

The events are geared toward anyone who doesn’t much have experience with fishing, lacks fishing equipment or wants to learn how to fish on the river’s edge. People can attend one or more days:

Coon Rapids Dam Regional Park in Coon Rapids, 4-8 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 15
Boom Island Park in Minneapolis, 4-8 p.m. Friday Aug. 16
Hidden Falls Regional Park in St. Paul, 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 17
Lake Rebecca Park in Hastings, 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 18.
Can’t make it? Potential anglers who want to learn how to fish can visit the DNR website at mndnr.gov/GoFishing.
