Fish the 10th Annual Children's Fishing Derby June 7

Come join in for the 10th Annual Children’s Fishing Derby sponsored by the USDA Forest Service Dakota Prairie Grasslands, the City of Watford City and the North Dakota Game and Fish Department. Bring your fishing rod and chair and meet at the Watford City Youth Fishing Pond, Saturday, June 7, just east of the Watford City football and track field.

Children ages 13 years and under are invited to fish free when accompanied by a responsible adult. Registration begins at 9 a.m. Lunch will be served around 11 a.m.

Bring your fishing pole, tackle box, bait, and enthusiasm and enjoy the outdoors with friends and family. Dress appropriately and be prepared to have fun.

Remember to bring some means of transporting catch fish home after the derby, as there will be no provision for on-site fish cleaning. We ask that everyone park their vehicles in the football field parking lot.

The community of Watford City is again generously donating prizes, food, and peoples’ time to make this derby a memorable day.
