CARE ICE FISHING CLASS  ( Saturday, January 17th 10am  )

The Connecticut Aquatic Resources Education (CARE) Program offers a free in-depth ice fishing class that introduces you to the wonders of water, fish, and fishing during the winter. Miss Judy and other CARE fishing coaches will pass along the knowledge they have learned through years of angling. The morning class includes a video, hands-on demonstrations with the equipment, how to stay safe on the ice, and additional activities that will teach and entertain youths and adults alike. Visit the CARE program ICE FISHING webpage to prepare yourself and for more ice fishing information. If ice conditions are safe, an outside ice fishing practice will be offered in the afternoon. All equipment is provided for your use. It is especially important to dress in layers for the weather conditions and to wear boots for the afternoon practice no sneakers are allowed.
