After being canceled last year due to fish health safety precautions, the Lacombe Fish & Game Association hosted their annual Youth Finish Day event Sunday morning (June 2) at the Len Thompson Pond.

With a fresh batch of 300 newly stocked rainbow trout, the event had a good turn out.

The event featured fishing equipment to use with instruction, free food, and music.

Chair of the Lacombe Fish & Game Association, Bernie Street was there.

He says what the kids enjoy isn't necessarily catching the fish, but the opposite.

"We seem to have a good turn out and the kids are enjoying it, we let them release the fish and they really like that part".

The annual Kids Can Catch Youth Fishing day event started at 11am and ended at 2.
