The 11th annual Kidfish event was held in Friendswood on Saturday, May 4th from 9 A.M. to Noon at the Centennial Park pond. The event and great weather brought in over 200 youth from the surrounding area. The KIDFISH Foundation stocked over 350lbs of adult fish in the Centennial Park pond for participants to catch. Bait, tackle, and loaner rods were provided to the children who did not have their own equipment.
KIDFISH is a non-profit outreach program designed to give children 16 and under the chance to experience the sport of fishing and the outdoors. Fish trophies were given to the first, second & third place finishers in each age group for the longest fish caught.
The event will qualify participants for the 2013 KIDFISH Classic. Qualifiers for the Classic are the top fundraisers over $50, the children catching the longest fish in their age group and any child fundraising $100 or more. The Classic will feature unforgettable fishing for trophy catfish up to 30 pounds. First prize will be a $1000 savings bond for the child and $1000 cash for the child’s school.
