This is a pop-in style program, so you can arrive anytime between 1 pm and 4 pm. To ensure that all participants have ample time to complete the Junior Angler booklet and activities, we ask that you arrive at the Dune Center no later than 3 pm.
Description
Young participants will learn essential ice fishing skills, safety measures, and fishing regulations, culminating in a "Junior Angler" certification and a fishing pole to take home (while supplies last). If ice conditions permit, attendees will have the opportunity to ice fish.
