Overview

Would you like to learn how to fish or improve your skills on the water catching fish? Come and develop the art of fishing on Breakneck Pond at the Corman Harriman Outdoor Center. Previous fishing experience would be helpful, but it is not necessary. Please bring your own fishing equipment. If you don't have a rod, I will bring a few extra for people to borrow on a first come/first serve basis. We will hold workshops how to use different lures and to target different kinds of fish. A NY fishing license is required: https://www.ny.gov/services/get-freshwater-fishing-license The event is sponsored by the NY-NoJ Chapter's Harriman Program Committee Volunteer Leaders.
