Fishing Tackle Swap To Be June 10

A Fishing Tackle Swap Meet will take place Sunday, June 10, at the Wolfe Bay Boat Access Site on the northwest side of South Manistique Lake near Curtis. The swap meet hours will be 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., hosted by the Newberry Parks and Recreation Field Office. All are invited to come and swap or just look during this Free Fishing Weekend and "Go- Get Outdoors" event.

Bring any fishing-related tackle, new, used, or antique, to sell, trade, swap, or just display. Boating-related items and boat motors qualify as fishing tackle. There is no registration fee. There will be a fishing decoy carving demonstration and various antique tackle displays. Those who plan to set up a display are asked to contact Jim Hooker at (906) 293-5131, extension 4021, and plan to bring their own canopy or table.

Department of Natural Resources employees will be available to respond to questions, and refreshments will be available. A kids fishing pier is located at the Wolfe Bay site, developed by the Portage Anglers Club and local citizens.
