The Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department will present an Intro to Canoe and Kayak Fishing seminar at Waterbury Center State Park at 4:00 p.m. on Friday, October 5.

“This program is perfect for the avid paddler looking to do a little more on the water,” said Corey Hart, an education specialist with the department. “Instructors will cover fishing regulations, casting, ecology and more before going fishing on Waterbury Reservoir as a group.”

The seminar is free but there will be a State Park day-use fee of $4.

Fishing equipment will be provided but participants need to bring their own canoe or kayak and personal flotation device. Paddling experience is required.

Registration is limited on a first-come-first serve basis. To register email letsgofishing@vermont.gov or call 802-265-2279.
