There's something about fishing that seems to make people happy. The relaxing scenery, the excitement of landing that big fish, and the comradery shared with fellow anglers makes for a one-of-a-kind experience. Make this experience even better by winning fun prizes! In partnership with the Arkansas Game and Fish, Cane Creek State Park will open its stocked catfish pond to all anglers 15 years of age and younger. Bring your finest fishing tackle and your best bait to try and get the heaviest stringer. Contestants placing in first, second, and third will receive a prize and get their picture in the paper. All participants receive a certificate of participation and get the choice to keep whatever fish they catch. Please sign in at the Cane Creek State Park Visitor Center before each derby and wait to be escorted to the park's derby pond. For questions please contact Cane Creek State Park.
