Lincoln's Discover Ice Fishing clinic canceled

The Discover Ice Fishing clinic scheduled for Jan. 19 at Lincoln’s Holmes Lake has been canceled because of extreme cold. The high in Lincoln that day will be 14 degrees, according to the forecast.

This event, the second of three at locations across the state, may be rescheduled in February. Check the calendar at OutdoorNebraska.gov for details.

The first clinic was at Alliance on Jan. 11, and the other will be Jan. 25 from 2-4 p.m. at Norfolk’s Skyview Lake. Anglers can learn the basics of ice-fishing or pick up new tips from experienced anglers.

Limited loaner equipment will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Bait and instruction will be provided. Participants are encouraged to dress for the weather and bring something to sit on and any ice fishing equipment they have.

All fishing regulations and permit requirements apply.
