Learn what it means to fish pono and get set up for success on your next fishing trip!
Our Pono Fishing Clinic is a unique opportunity for families new to fishing to learn some of the key skills and information to get started fishing locally. During the clinic we will cover topics like safety, responsibilities of fishers, basic rules and regulations. We will also have casting and bait prep instruction. At the end of the lesson, each participating family will have the opportunity to borrow rods, tackle, and bait to try their hand at the real thing in a designated area at the park.
We hope to see you there!
