Get ready to have a fin‑tastic time, Montgomery! 🐟💛 One of Montgomery Parks & Recreation’s favorite family-friendly events is making a splash this June — Free Fish Day! 🌊🎣
Bring your own fishing gear and spend a relaxing morning casting a line, swapping stories, and schooling around with family and friends at Gateway Park (3800 Davenport Drive). No fishing license needed — just come ready to catch some catfish and some good vibes! 😎🐱🐟
Plus, you can enjoy free cooked fish samples on-site — talk about a reel treat! 😋🔥
(Just a heads-up: staff won’t be able to clean your catches. You’ll need to tackle that part yourself! 🧤)
Before the big day, the pond will be stocked with hundreds of pounds of catfish, so you’ll have plenty of chances to get hooked! 🎣✨
Be sure to bring:
• A cooler for your catches 🧊
• Sunscreen ☀️
• Lawn chairs 🪑
• Bait & fishing gear
• Water to stay hydrated 💧
• Optional gear: hat, sunglasses, gloves, snacks, or a wagon to haul your stuff 😎🧤🛒
And please help us keep the park looking shore-ly beautiful — toss your trash before you leave! 🌿💚
Got little ones who lose interest faster than a fish slips off a hook? No worries — there’s a playground nearby where they can splash out some energy!

Come make memories, catch some fish, and have a whale of a time! 🐋🎣💖
