Fishing News

The Discover Ice Fishing event scheduled for Jan. 24 at Omaha’s Flanagan Lake has been cancelled because of poor ice conditions and a forecast of dangerously cold temperatures.

There will be no makeup date.

The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission’s Youth Fishing Program schedules these events each winter to allow anglers an opportunity to learn the basics of ice fishing or pick up a few new tips from experienced anglers.
