Stratford Fishing Club member Brian Davies nets a rainbow trout for a successful angler at last year's event.
It's all go for the 22nd annual Stratford kids trout fishing day next month.
The annual event takes place at the Scout Den pool on the Patea River in Stratford's King Edward Park.
Bookings for individual 15-minute fishing slots are now open, and parents and caregivers can book a slotfor their kids through the Stratford iSite.
All fishing gear is supplied and with the help of Stratford Fishing Club members and volunteers, children will be able to fish for some of the 300 good-sized two-year-old rainbow trout that Fish & Game has grown in its Hāwera hatchery.
When the event finishes in the afternoon, the nets will be removed and the remaining rainbow trout will be available to anglers who hold a current trout fishing licence.
