Family Learn to Fish workshops will be offered on the third Saturday of most months at Fort Harrison State Park in Indianapolis, beginning April 16.

The workshops, which run from 9 a.m. to noon, offer families the chance to learn to fish, both in a classroom and while fishing on Delaware Lake, aided by expert instructors. The DNR’s Go FishIN program provides fishing gear and bait. All workshop fishing is catch-and-release.

The required advance registration or more information is available by e-mailing [nrec@dnr.IN.gov](mailto:nrec@dnr.IN.gov) or calling (317) 562-1338.

Those who participate in the workshop this month may be able to enjoy the 700 rainbow trout that were stocked in Delaware Lake in late March. The 7-acre lake offers good shoreline fishing access and ADA fishing facilities.

If you’re already an angler, consider sharing this information with a friend or family who will be in the Indianapolis area that hasn’t been hooked yet.
