Big River Fishing
Join us for Big River Fishing and celebrate the 100 years of collective restoration efforts that brought the 42-mile section from the Twin Cities to Red Wing, back to life. Let’s catch some fish and celebrate our progress and inspire the next 100 years of stewardship. All fishing equipment including casting instructions, river rods, tackle and bait will be supplied. All skills levels and ages are welcomed. Children 6 and under must be accompanied with an adult.
The Sacred Water Shared Future campaign is powered by you! The heart of this centennial celebration is the incredible variety of events planned and hosted by our partners — community groups, nonprofits, businesses, schools, and individuals who feel a connection to the Mississippi River.
We do not host events ourselves; instead, we serve as a central hub for river-focused activities happening across the Twin Cities throughout 2026.
