County Regional Parks' offer opportunities to learn a skill that will last a lifetime


JUNIOR FISHING WORKSHOPS - It's THAT season again! - Time for kids to take a break from video games and television and come out to a local lake for some fresh air and fishing fun. And if they don't know how to "drop in a line," they can attend a Junior Fishing Workshop at a San Bernardino County Regional Park nearby and learn all the skills for this life-long activity. Check the schedule to visit the lake near your home, or explore a new park in another part of our beautifully diverse county.

Workshops are held monthly at one of the county's six regional park lakes. All begin at 7:30 a.m. and conclude at 1 p.m.

Boys and girls ages 7 to 15 will learn this favorite outdoor pastime under the instruction of expert teachers. The junior anglers will rotate through five hands-on stations, learning the basics of lake-shore fishing, including the anatomy of a fish; what gear to use and knot-tying; rules and safe practices; cleaning, cooking, and tasting; and tips for casting and catching.

Once the kids have completed the organized training, they can check-out a fishing rod and reel and practice their new skills at the lake. Each participant also gets their very own event t-shirt at the end of the workshop.

All equipment and tackle is provided for each child with the $7 registration fee. There is a $10 vehicle entry on the day of the event.
