About this event

  • 3 hours

Have you ever been fishing or has it been a long time since you 'wet' your line? If you are intimidated by how to tie a Palomar knot or proper casting techniques for all situations, then we have a class for you.

Family Fishing Clinics are an introductory class to fishing. Family Fishing Clinics will teach skills on how to tie fishing knots, how to rig a rod and reel, casting and the best part is everyone will get to try their hand at fishing. Kids from ages 4 to adults are welcome, so come out and play, enjoy the outdoors and make this a Family Fun Day!
