Family fishing day at Green Timbers on June 12th!
« on: June 09, 2010, 12:31:56 PM »

The Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC and City of Surrey are hosting a family fishing day at Green Timbers Lake on Saturday June 12th. From 10:00am to 1:00pm, kids under the age of 16 can experience rainbow trout fishing under the guidance of Learn to Fish program instructors.

Free rod and reel will be available for borrowing for those who do not have one. The Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC will be running regular mini fishing lessons throughout the event as well as displaying a live aquarium of BC freshwater gamefish. Other highlights include random draw prizes and various games and craft activities by the City of Surrey.

Green Timbers Lake is stocked on June 9th so anglers can expect good fishing at this Saturday’s event!

I was pretty surprised to see how fast those 4 fish ended up in the cooler. ;)

I've put up photos from last Saturday's event:
