Description
Ages 5-15, Pre-Registration Required
These events are geared towards children ages 5-15 years old with little to no fishing experience. All participants must be accompanied by an adult, and use Fishing in the City provided rods/reels and tackle (no personal fishing gear allowed). These events have a rolling start time of 8am - 10am. When signing up, please choose which time slot you plan to arrive (between 8am - 9am, 9am - 10am, or 10am - 10:30am). Participants must complete a 45-minute "Learn to Fish" clinic in order to borrow gear. As participants arrive, they will be put into small groups to go through a series of stations, during which they will learn about casting, knot-tying, fishing safety, conservation and ecology, and more. Once they have completed the clinic they may fish until noon .
Events are rain or shine. In the event of hot, wet and/or cold weather please dress appropriately. Family members are welcome to come and learn, however, adults may not fish until the event ends. When you register, please list the name/age of the children who will be, as well as the name/contact information of the adults who will be joining.
Note: All participants must use the Fishing in the City rod/reels and the rigs as they are. This helps to ensure equal opportunity.
