However\, no bait that is carried in water is allowed to prevent the introduction of invasive species.  This event is catch-and-release only.  The pond is stocked with Channel Catfish and Hybrid Sunfish.  \nRegistration is required online at Events | Missouri Department of Conservation (s3licensing.com).  Please be sure to register each person in your group separately.  Class size is limited to 20 participants.  All children must be accompanied by an adult. \nFamilies now have the option to link their children’s accounts to their own accounts\, which will streamline the program registration process.  Once a group account is set up\, parents can register their children to an event without having to log-off and log-in for each individual. This option allows parents to register their entire family or select family members to an event at the same time.  First\, users will log into their account and click “My Group Profile\,” then add family members to their account.  Setting up a group account today can make program registration quicker and easier for all MDC events.  \nFor more information or help with registration\, contact Kara Entrop at 660-438-4465 Ext. 6402 or by email at Kara.Entrop@mdc.mo.gov.  URL:https://visitbentoncomo.com/event-calendar/fathers-day-paint-a-crankbait-and-go-fishing/ LOCATION:Lost Valley Hatchery\, 28232 Hatchery Way\, Warsaw\, MO\, 65355\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://visitbentoncomo.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/20220422_134755.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Missouri Department of Conservation":MAILTO:Kara.Entrop@mdc.mo.gov END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20220625T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20220625T213000 DTSTAMP:20260501T051941 CREATED:20251121T103550Z LAST-MODIFIED:20251121T110045Z UID:10000010-1656185400-1656192600@visitbentoncomo.com SUMMARY:Sunset Kayak Paddle DESCRIPTION:Guided sunset kayak eco-tours of the 65+ acre Warsaw Wetlands located behind the Warsaw Adventures shop!
