The Brunswick Recreation Department and Ohio Division of Wildlife will present a Hooked on Fishing Program for children ages 7-12, which will be held at North Park on Grafton Road. Each session will be 3 hours in length and will introduce participants with little or no experience to the fun sport of angling.
By participating in the program the children will learn basic skills and techniques to begin fishing on their own. The program includes a strong stewardship message as part of each learning activities. Parents are encouraged to accompany their children but it is not required. Each day, the morning program will focus on a particular skill so we strongly recommend that children should attend all 3 days to get the most out of the program. Fishing poles and bait will be provided.
