Junior Choupique Fishing Rodeo

All participants, 0–15 years old, male or female, are eligible to compete in the fishing rodeo, but must be accompanied by an adult or guardian. The fishing times start at 9 a.m. and end at noon. The registration fee is only 25 cents, which includes a free hot dog and soft drink, and hasn't changed since the first rodeo.

Fishing is restricted to the banks of the Blind River Point area and boat launch areas, but not near bridge area. Awards will be given. Random drawings in each age group for rod and reels will be held at awards time (winners must be present). Refreshments will be sold.
