About the event

They say that baseball is America's pastime, but what about fishing? Americans have been fishing for as long as anyone can remember, only the equipment has changed over time. Come alone or bring the whole gang, and we'll set you up with all the gear you'll need. Staff will host a short hands-on workshop to show participants how to prepare the old-school tackle. No Experience is necessary. Youth under the age of 14 must be accompanied by a registered adult. Registration is required for all participants.

Ages: Age at least 5 yrs but less than 99 yrs,
