About This Activity

Description

Internet Registration has not begun yet. Check Registration Dates in details.

This fishing class for beginners focuses on freshwater fishing including rigging a pole, casting, fish identification, knot tying, and much more. Gain the experience you need to fish on your own. No experience necessary and all equipment and bait are provided for use during the program. This class is a great way to spend quality family time together while learning a new lifelong outdoor skill. Have your own equipment but not really sure what to do with it? Bring it to class and learn to rig your line and cast independently. Fee is for one parent and one child.
This program is a Parent/Child format and we ask that there be a parent or other adult for EACH child participating. If you have a family of three or more, a Friends & Family Adventure may save you money and you can plan around your schedule! One two hour fishing Friends & Family Adventure is $135 for up to three participants (add another person or two for $25 each). Contact Matt Medicus for details or visit www.tinyurl.com/adventurepackages.
Visit www.tinyurl.com/HCRPAdventure for more Adventure & Outdoor opportunities including Nite Bite Fishing! Scroll down for more important program notes.
Detailed info will be sent to the email of the participant – Check your registration to be sure you get it! This program runs for two consecutive weeks. Fee is for one parent and one child; in the case of siblings, we ask that a parent/guardian be present with EACH child (registration is per child) and that the SAME parent/guardian attend both weeks.
All equipment and bait is provided for use during the program – feel free to bring your own rod and tackle subject to approval of the instructor (no fly rods). PARENTS: Maryland law requires anyone age 16 or older to have a Maryland Fishing License. This license must be on the individual anytime the individual is fishing. We encourage adults to purchase a license before attending (freshwater, non-tidal fishing license is currently $32/year for MD residents). Licenses are available at many regional sporting goods retailers, or online from the Maryland Department of Natural Resources at https://compass.dnr.maryland.gov/dnrcompassportal. There are options for 7- or 3-day licenses as well.
For more information contact Kelly Vogelpohl, 410-313-1754 or kvogelpohl@howardcountymd.gov.
