The Summer Fishing Clinics are geared for beginners and youth of all ages! From learning how to use fishing rods to which bait works best! You will walk away with a better understanding of fishing. Anglers under 12 years of age will be receiving their own fishing pole to take home, courtesy of the National Park Foundation. Plan on wearing close toed shoes, bring water, and sunblock. Youth 15 years old and younger do not need a fishing permit, all others will need a permit.
People have cared for the Niobrara River for generations. They have cared for the waters, tributaries and lakes that led to the Niobrara River. Fishing, a time-honored tradition, is a small way to remember how to care for the waters.
“The Niobrara National Scenic River is proud to partner with the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission to provide these clinics to community,” Acting Superintendent Susan Cook stated. “We are excited to engage local youth in our public lands in ways caregivers have for generations.”
