Passport to Fishing

Original Post from 4/18/2016

   The Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District and the Great Parks of Hamilton County are partnering to host a Passport to Fishing Event on June 18th from 8 – 10 am at Miami Whitewater Forest. This is a free event that is open to kids between the age of 5 and 17 years old.                             The goal of this program is to provide skills, knowledge and information to participants so that they are able to start fishing in their own community. The Passport to Fishing program will last two hours and consists of a total of four different stations.  Participants will rotate as a group around to each station every thirty minutes. Participants will visit four stations covering the following topics...

• Casting          
• Local Information
• Fish Habitat and Fish Handling
• Rigging and Knot Tying

      Registration and a Great Parks motor vehicle permit are required to participate the day of the event. A motor vehicle event can be purchased the day of the event or online by visiting the following line, http://www.greatparks.org/shop/motor-vehicle-permit/annual-motor-vehicle-permit
