Ice Fishing with Frank for Indigenous Youth 13 to 18 yrs old
PA DAY, Friday JANUARY 31, 2025
Join us to learn all about the art of ice fishing with Frank, our very own expert fisherman from the Néhiyaw Nation!
No experience required! Frank will guide you through all aspects of jigging for a big pike, a pickerel or maybe even a sturgeon on the mighty Kichi Sibi (Ottawa river). With a bit of luck, you’ll also learn how to prepare the fish for cooking.
