About the Program
Overview:
We may live in the driest state in the nation, but there are plenty of amazing fishing opportunities to be found in Nevada. From the classroom to the water, our Angler Education clinics will introduce you to various fishing techniques and all equipment needed for your next fishing outing. Clinics are open to everyone and are free, but a valid fishing license is required.
