54511 - Pre-Season Fishing Fun
Come learn the basics before the fishing season gets underway! We’ll spend the afternoon learning about fishing equipment, techniques, and ethics by practicing our casting skills, engaging in the timeless art of Japanese fish printing, and covering principles from the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission’s SMART Angler Program. After the day’s activity, the only thing you’ll have trouble with is keeping fish off your hook! And remember, our TriAnglers weekly fishing program starts May 6th! Certified Fishing Skills Instructor will be present during all activities.
