Youth aged 7-16 are invited to register for this FREE hands-on program. Kids must be accompanied by an adult, whether they are a parent, adult sibling, or friend. By learning together, we hope that the youth will continue fishing into the future.

Throughout the program, youth rotate through hands-on learning stations including casting, knot tying, macroinvertebrate study, and fish identification. After these learning stations, participants practice their new skills, with the support of staff and volunteers, by fishing from the pier.

All fishing gear will be provided.

This program takes place at Discovery Pier, a barrier-free public space on Grand Traverse Bay.

Ages: 7 - 16 (must be accompanied by and adult)
Date: Saturday, May 31, 2025
