Spring Kids Free Fishing Day

5/4/2019 | Montauk State Park | Salem, MO

Kids fish for free at the park each year on the Saturday before Mother’s Day weekend.

All children must pick up their tag before fishing. A special designated fishing area will be provided for children only; however, children can fish anywhere in the park. This event contains prize drawings for fish. For more information, call Montauk State Park Fish Hatchery at 573- 548-2585.
