(ABC 6 News) — If you are looking for a chance to enjoy the outdoors this weekend, you may want to grab a kid and head out to a lake with your rod and reel.

Starting Friday, it is Take a Kid Ice Fishing Weekend in Minnesota.

Any state residents can go fishing for free if you go with a child 15 years old or younger. It lasts all the way through Monday, January 20.

However, the DNR is reminding residents to double check the ice before stepping on it to catch some fish.
