Sportfishing is an educational 4-H program for youth of all ages. It
teaches fishing skills, conservation, ethical knowledge, aquatic ecology,
tackle crafting and much much more.
We are always interested in adult
volunteers who are willing to share their knowledge and skills with our 4-H
youth. Please let us know if you would like to help out!
Interested?
