KID’S FISHING ADVENTURE

A Kid’s Fishing Adventure is one of the most popular attractions during the event. And it’s free!

The fishing areas consist of submerged pens which have been stocked with mackerel provided by Everinghan Brothers Bait Company. There is one at each Landing: Fisherman’s, Point Loma Sportfishing and H&M Landing.

During DAY AT THE DOCKS children ages 4-12 are provided rods, reels and assistance by members of the San Diego Rod & Reel Club and the San Diego Anglers. The Kid’s Fishing Adventure delivers hands on action for the first time angler. It’s lots of fun!

The Kids Fishing Adventure is open from 9 AM to 4 PM. To avoid long waits in line, sign up early at the San Diego Rod & Reel Club booth for a reserved fishing time.
