HOOKED ON FISHING PROGRAM
The Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks Hooked On Fishing Program has provided ice-fishing opportunities for youngsters since it began in 1996. In the early years, a couple of classrooms of students could catch 200-300 perch in two hours ice fishing on reservoirs such as Beaver Creek near Havre. In 2005, the ice fishing trip for the Big Sandy and Havre classrooms was cancelled for the first time ever due to poor ice conditions. In 2006, there is no ice on Beaver Creek Reservoir and student ice fishing was moved to Fresno Reservoir. The ice fishing trip was recently postponed due to poor ice and is now scheduled at Fresno Reservoir in mid-February, if conditions improve. FWP has also had to cancel the ice fishing trips planned this year for about 30 classrooms in the Great Falls area. Ice fishing is expected to occur at Nelson Reservoir for area kids on Feb. 21, and a session is also scheduled for youngsters in Zurich at Dry Fork Reservoir on Feb. 21. ------------- TasunkaWitko - Chinook, Montana  Helfen, Wehren, Heilen Die Wahrheit wird euch frei machen |
