Community Science Fishing

Learn the basics of catch-and-release line fishing from the Brooklyn Bridge Park’s Education team. During this clinic, participants of all ages will learn how to tie knots, bait a hook, drop a line, and (with some luck) reel up a fish! Contribute to the our community science efforts as we collect data from our catch to assess the health of the East River.

No experience or supplies needed – equipment is provided but please note only a limited rods are available to loan and will be handed out on a first come, first served basis. All ages are welcome at this free, walk-up event! Learn more at brooklynbridgepark.org/series/community-science
