Today: Free fishing for kids at Waldie Plaza & Antioch Fishing Pier.
Sign up to be part of the annual free Kids Fishing Derby held in the memory of Antioch resident “Compy” Compomizzo who inspired the mission statement: “Get kids hooked on fishing, not drugs or gangs.”,
The fishing derby provides the opportunity to teach kids fifteen and younger conservation and the basics of fishing competition that may spur an interest in future events.
Register the day of the event to join in on this exciting afternoon filled with great catches!
**If you have your own fishing poles, please bring them. For those that do not have fishing equipment, there will be poles for you to borrow. This event is made possible through the great partnership between the California Striped Bass Association, West Delta Chapter and the City of Antioch Recreation Department.

All day
Free Fishing Days provide a great, low-cost way to give fishing a try. While all fishing regulations, such as bag and size limits, gear restrictions, report card requirements, fishing hours and stream closures remain in effect, there are two days each year when anyone can fish without purchasing a fishing license.
Have you ever felt the excitement of watching your bobber suddenly jiggle, then dive out of sight? Or feeling the tap-tap-tap of a bass as it tastes the worm on the end of your line? Or having a salmon practically tear the rod out of your hands as it smashes your lure? What’s that? You say you never learned to fish?
FFree Fishing Days for 2024 are Saturday, July 6 and Saturday, August 31
