The Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department will be conducting Introduction to Ice Fishing Clinics open to the public this winter.
"Families in Vermont sometimes turn to ice fishing during the winter months for a popular family outing," said Fish and Wildlife Education Specialist Corey Hart. "Our educational fishing programs provide new anglers with the information they need to be successful, and additional programs will be added in the months ahead."
"Join us for a hands-on day of fishing fun at one of these events to learn the basics or refresh your skills. There is something for everyone with events ranging from the popular Ice Fishing festival to smaller outings focusing on specialized fishing tactics."
Be sure to register for a clinic on Vermont Fish and Wildlife's website under Upcoming Events. If ice is not suitable, the program will be cancelled and participants will be notified in advance.
