Children’s Trout Fishing Clinic at Fort Parker State Park

This is a family event where Mexia Bass Club member volunteers teach your children, in a hands-on way, how to fish.  Before each clinic, experienced fisherman will teach youth how to cast and tie the knots needed for fishing.  Each clinic begins with a short introduction to fish ecology and conservation.  The children will have a chance to fish for almost two hours with the help of Mexia Bass Club members.  Fishing poles, bait, and stringers are all provided.  This is an excellent opportunity to introduce fishing to those who have never fished before.  The only cost is the standard park entry fee for adults.  Sign up by calling 254-562-5751 between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
