Fishing is a wonderful way to connect with your family. Whether you are an avid fisherman or new to it (like me), it is a great way to spend time with your children and spouse. Leave technology at home and enjoy nature. There are many different opportunities to enjoy fishing in our area this spring and summer. These events are for novices (like myself) and experienced anglers. Come out and have fun on the water!
Community Fishing Events are organized by Nebraska Game and Parks and there are several Lincoln-area events. Rods and reels, as well as bait and fishing instruction, will be available for free. Look for the Family Fishing Trailer at each site. All fishing permits and regulations apply. Everyone except Nebraska residents under age 16 must have a valid Nebraska fishing permit.
