Culinary experts at the event will share with you the best and most contemporary cooking methods for seafood. Biologists will also provide the public with recent updates and current data on the aquatic species populations found in Arkansas. On the other hand, game wardens will also share recent and updated regulations on fishing to ensure no one lands on the wrong side of the law.
The Fishing Kickoff will feature unique presentations at the top every hour and include outdoor vendors selling various fishing equipment and tools. Participants will be provided free by the Game & Fish Foundation and stand a chance to win multiple door prizes.
