Join Indiana DNR for this beginner catfish fishing workshop on Sat., April 25th from 9:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m. ET at Sugar Ridge (FWA). Catfish fishing is a great activity that doesn’t take much to get started and can help you put wild game on the table and enjoy the outdoors in new ways!

This adults-oriented (16+) workshop will cover basic catfish biology, fish tips, gear selection, safety, regulations, and even ways to take your harvest from field to fork (or from the pond to plate, that is)! The class will consist of a 30 to 45-minute lecture followed by hands-on activities to help solidify your catfish fishing knowledge and practice skills you may use in the field. Participants can expect a small amount of walking (up to one mile). Clothes and shoes you don’t mind getting a little bit wet are recommended.

DNR values inclusion and access for all participants and will provide reasonable accommodation for this event. Please contact Eric Helton at [email protected] or 463-325-6226 to request an accommodation or discuss any questions and concerns. Requests must be submitted at least one week before the event.
