The South Carolina Department of Natural Resources is partnering with the City of Charleston for the Star Wars themed May the Fish Be with Youth Fishing Rodeo. This is a catch and release fishing rodeo (not a tournament) and instructors will be available to help anglers learn the basics of saltwater fishing. Children 15 years of age or younger and their parents/guardians are welcome. The rodeo will conclude with drawings for a variety of great prizes. So come out and fish, enjoy the outdoors, and may the force be with you!
What to bring: This is an outside event so dress appropriately for the weather. We even encourage to dress up as your favorite Star Wars character! Please bring your own rods and tackle if possible, but we will have a limited number of rod and reel combos to borrow. Terminal tackle such as hooks, weights, and swivels will be available to those that need it. Shrimp will be provided for bait but anglers are welcome to bring their own. Other items to consider bringing include a bucket for saltwater, chairs, hat, sunglasses, bug spray and a reusable water bottle.
• Costs: The event is free of charge.
• Weather: Event will be held rain or shine unless hazardous weather occurs.
• Parking: You can park along Colonial Lake or the surrounding streets. Make sure you check Google maps beforehand to see which streets are one way and where free parking is available.
• Prizes: Anglers will receive a ticket upon check-in and following fishing, we'll hold drawings for a variety of prizes. To reduce waste, those that bring a reusable water bottle will receive an additional ticket.
