Kids Fishing Day 2026

April 4 @ 7:30 am - 12:00 pm

$9.00 – $13
  • « Sweet Briar Senior Art Exhibition: Handle with Care
  • Saturday Market Day »

Calling all young anglers! Kids 12 and younger get free admission and can fish for free during this annual event. Cedar Creek, which runs under the Natural Bridge, will be stocked with over four hundred and fifty 12-20″ rainbow trout for the taking. Kids will get to keep up to six fish they catch.

Park rangers and volunteers will be on hand to help teach you how to fish, how to prepare them after they’re caught, and even how to cook them.

Participants must bring their own pole, bait, and gear. Children can catch and keep up to six fish each. No adults may fish, but there must be at least one paying adult with participating children.

Children aged 12 years and younger receive free admission from 7:00 a.m. to noon. After 12:00 p.m., children’s tickets resume their normal rate at $6 per child. Adults (those 13 and older) pay regular admission price all day.

For any questions, please call (540) 254-0795.

This event is sponsored by the Friends of Natural Bridge State Park.
