Minnesota’s Take A Kid Fishing Weekend Starts Friday

Fishing can be an amazing way to bond with kids and this weekend the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources makes that activity easier than ever.

The DNR's Take A Kid Fishing Weekend is this Friday, June 9 - Sunday, June 11.  That means that anglers in Minnesota can fish without licenses if they take children ages 15 or younger fishing.

In Minnesota, children ages 15 and younger don’t need fishing licenses any time of the year. Take a Kid Fishing Weekend is a way for adults and kids to fish together without the step of buying an adult license.

If you fish at a Minnesota State Park, you'll also be able to borrow fishing gear to make it even more convenient.
