Get ready, get set…fish! Bass Pro Shops and Cabela’s invite families to test the fish-filled waters for FREE over the next two weekends, Saturday & Sunday, June 13 & 14 and June 20 & 21, 2026, at “Gone Fishing” events. Youngsters can learn easy techniques, catch their first fish or fine-tune their fishing skills in a real catch and release pond.
