Ice Fishing 101

Event Summary

This is a great way for kids or adults to be introduced to the sport of ice fishing.  Meet at the Lake Iowa boat ramp at 9:30 am to learn about fishing equipment and safety.  Then head out on to the ice to put your new skills to the test.  All equipment will be provided.  A campfire and hot chocolate will be available to help keep you warm! Children must be accompanied by an adult.  Anglers over the age of 16 must have a valid Iowa fishing license.  Pre-registration is recommended but not required- registered participants will be contacted directly in case of a cancelation due to inclement weather. 

Can't make it in the morning?  Then take a short drive over to F.W. Kent Park in Johnson County for an ice fishing clinic from 2:30-5:00 pm.  Either program will provide you with the information you need to get started.
