A workshop led by expert fishermen and women in honor of fisher extraordinaire Neal Taylor will teach kids and parents (not required) basic fishing skills at Cachuma Lake on Saturday, July 16, from 8:45 a.m. to noon.
The workshop is open to kids between the ages of 8 and 15. The workshop is a dry land workshop focusing on teaching fundamental skills and will take place on the lawn at the Neal Taylor Nature Center.
The participants are divided into small groups and circulate through presentations on knot-tying; casting; trout fishing; rigging for bass, crappie and blue gill; and salt-water fishing. All segments are taught by local expert anglers. Parents are welcome to observe if they do not want to participate. The program is not suitable for children younger than 7 years old.
Registration is free and limited to the first 50 kids and parents if the family would like to participate too. Call 693-0691 or email julie@clnaturecenter.org for more information.
