MACON, Ga. — On Saturday, kids got the chance to cast a line at the Macon Water Authority's Kids Fishing Derby.
It was a free event for families to come outside and have fun while learning the importance of protecting and preserving drinking water resources.
The pond was stocked with trout for kids ages 3-17.
The day started bright and early at 7 a.m. at Javors Lucas Lake.
Then at 10 a.m. they had a weigh-in to see who reeled in the biggest catch of the day.
The Macon Water Authority says the 2022 fishing season officially begins on Sunday.
