“Fish and Float” on Saturday, April 27 from 2 to 4 P.M.
Whether it’s fishing or floating, enjoy a family-friendly afternoon at this drop-in event on Sunderland Pond at the Ooms Conservation Area, Chatham. Kayaks, fishing poles, and gear are available to borrow for the afternoon.
First-time anglers need not worry, there will be plenty of opportunities to learn tried and true tips and basics from seasoned volunteers.
Make sure to wear weather-appropriate clothing and footwear and bring a water bottle and sunscreen. For attendees who already have fishing gear or a kayak, please feel free to take them along. Social and leashed dogs are welcome but please remember bags for fecal waste.
For folks new to this “ole fishing hole,” the address is 480 Rock City Road, just off County Rt. 13 in Chatham Center. After parking your vehicle in the lot, there is a .1 mile walk over grassy terrain and a boardwalk to the event. Please note that due to construction, there are portions of the boardwalk that are closed.
As this is a fishing clinic, participants don’t need a fishing license, however, should you wish to fish all season, simply go to the CLC website and apply for one at columbialand.org/get-outside/know-before-you-go/fishing
See you there!!!
