Lake County’s Office of Parks and Water Resources invites children ages 4 and older to participate in a free kids’ fishing clinic on Saturday, April 12. The event will run from 9 am to 12 pm at Hickory Point Recreational Complex (27341 State Road 19, Tavares). The kids’ fishing clinic is aimed at teaching youth about our waterways, conservation, and basic fishing skills.
The first 30 participants who sign up will have the opportunity to take home a free fishing pole and tackle box. Children must be accompanied by a chaperone. Lake County staff will be on site to assist with baiting hooks, removing fish, species identification, and other environmental & educational components.
For more information or to sign up, please email the Parks and Water Resources Office at info@lcwa.org or call (352) 253-4950.
