If you can help...

Please come fishing with us!

Catamount Institute’s after school club kids are studying all things water this semester, catching bugs in the creek, tying flies, and going fishing.  We are still short on volunteers, especially for fishing.  If you think you’d like to fish Catamount’s private ponds at the end of Edlowe Rd past Woodland Park, please give me a call or email. 

·         Fishing groups are small-TU is lending youth rods for kids

·         I will teach as much as you need me to

·         You cast (my casting needs work)

·         You catch a fish (We hope- for the kids to see)

Here is the most recent schedule for fly tying and fishing as of 10/6/10.  Not much has changed- which is why we need your help!

·         Strike through indicates passed event

·         Highlighted “Volunteer Needed” indicates we still need an experienced fly fisher

I look forward to hearing from somebody ;)
