The free clinic is open to all ages and is a great opportunity to introduce new anglers to fishing. All registered youth will be eligible for a door prize. Youth under the age of 7 must be accompanied by an adult throughout the program. This is a family fishing clinic. We encourage adults to stay during the event!

REGISTRATION DEADLINE EXTENDED: Register by Tuesday, June 4th to help us prepare enough food for all. Register here!

More Details:

• Sign-in begins at 8:30 am at the Lake Meyer Campground.
• Sessions will run from 9:00-11:00 am with a free family lunch to follow.
• All registered youth are eligible for door prizes which will be drawn after the sessions. Must be present to win.
