Northeastern Nebraska state parks see many enhancements
Projects in the works or completed at these state park areas will appeal to an array of park users.
Anglers can learn the basics of ice-fishing or pick up a few new tips from experienced anglers at Discover Ice-Fishing clinics in January.
The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission’s Youth Fishing Program will host three on-ice events and one classroom event.
From 9 a.m.-noon Mountain Time Jan. 11, the Nebraska Fish and Game Association will host a classroom clinic at the Alliance Eagles Club, 1520 W. 3rd St. This will feature presentations by some of Nebraska’s top ice fishermen. Registration is suggested by emailing Harold@nefga.org.
From 2-4 p.m. Jan. 11, anglers can head to Laing Lake in Alliance to Discover Ice-Fishing with volunteer instructors helping you learn while on the ice.
The other on-ice events will be from 2-4 p.m. Jan. 19 at Lincoln’s Holmes Lake (located about mid-lake along the north shoreline drive), and 2-4 p.m. Jan. 25 at Norfolk’s Skyview Lake.
To get a reminder for the on-ice events or notification in case of cancellation, visit the calendar event entries at Calendar.OutdoorNebraska.gov.
Limited loaner equipment will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Bait and instruction will be provided. Participants are encouraged to bring their own equipment.
All fishing regulations and permit requirements apply.
A lack of safe ice will force the cancellation of the on-ice events.
