Have you ever wanted to learn to fish? Join the DNR for "Hook, Line and Sinker",
a weekly fishing program conducted by our staff at over 30 state parks and fish
hatcheries in Michigan.
They'll teach you casting and fishing basics, and
we can provide a rod and reel to use if you don't have your own equipment. Hook,
Line and Sinker programs begin in mid-June and continue throughout the
summer.
Participants under 17 do not need a fishing license. Programs are
FREE; however, a Recreation Passport is required for park entry.
The
experienced, friendly instructors will introduce you to fishing in a relaxed and
fun atmosphere. With step-by-step direction, you'll learn fishing basics like
knot-tying, setting up your pole, casting, selecting and using bait, and
removing fish from the hook. After the 20- to 30-minute lesson, you'll be ready
to hit the water and exercise your new skills.
There are many parks across the state that offer the program and the closest to the DR is - Sterling State Park, Monroe, 734-289-2715. Call for info.
