Free Fish Saturday

Today was Free Fish Saturday, meaning in the State of Tennessee you can fish without a fishing license.

So theTWRA and Knox County joined together to offer a community event at The Cove at Concord Park. The TN Valley Sportsman’s Club provided lunch of hot dog, chips and water. Many local businesses like Academy, Gander Mountain and others provided door prizes.
