HOUGHTON LAKE– The 2nd Annual Kids Fishing Event was held on June 7 at the West DNR boat launch.

Sponsored by the Houghton Lake Association, the event included a fishing contest, casting competitions, lure painting, and various other fishing themed activities.

Several kids lined up the shore in hopes of getting hooked on the fun of fishing. Over 200 fish were released into the launch cove, 20 of which were tagged. For those lucky enough to catch a tagged fish, prizes were awarded from Lyman’s on the Lake.

When the contestants weren’t fishing, attendees could enjoy ice cream, complimentary hot dogs, face painting, and a scavenger hunt.
