The fishin’ poles are on order; let’s hope they arrive in time for you to take advantage of INDIANA’S FREE FISHING WEEKEND on June 8th & 9th. The poles will be equipped with hook, line, sinker, and bobber. All you need to do is dig a few worms from the garden and ‘GO FISHIN’. As in the past we will give the fishin’ poles only to adults accompanied by a child under 12. Please, only one pole per person; if you have more than one child then please accept your pole and go to the end of the line; we only have 100 to pass out.
