You and the kids will want to make plans to attend the 2018 Hunting and Fishing Day Festival this Saturday at Bayou Bodcau Recreation area.

This coming weekend could be one of the best bonding experiences ever for kids and parents alike.

FYI, if you are caught fishing without a license in Louisiana - it could cost you between $50 and $500 in fines and / or jail time.

Here are the dates that some of our nearby states have available to go fishing for free, so you don't have to spend $80 and wait 45 minutes to get a fishing license for a day!

It's the perfect excuse to hit the water with your kid(s) this weekend.
