The Art of Fishing

People of all ages engage with nature through fishing. Some fish for fun, some fish to eat. Some consider fishing an art, others a science. Regardless, fishing is much more than catching and conquering – it is about how we study, locate, handle, and safely engage with the fish we encounter. This week we will learn about fish, fishing gear, and techniques; we will walk and fish the beaches; we will get out on and in the water; we will learn to read the water to tell us where there might be fish. We’ll don masks to see what fish we see. We’ll have casting competitions. We may catch fish; we may not, but we will have fun and all be better equipped to enjoy a lifetime of this rewarding sport responsibly.

Ages 11 – 15
