NYPA’s Environmental Justice Community Volunteer Corps (EJCVC) recently wrapped up their 3rd Fishing Clinic event at Lock 23 Canals State Park. NYPA partnered with New York Sea Grant, NYS Department of Environmental Conservation, and New York State Canal Corporation to host a day of robust programs and learning activities for Tillie's Touch. Students learned how to cast, tie knots, and identify and handle fish. They also observed a Lock demonstration where they learned about how a lock operates. NYPA volunteers guided students throughout the day and supported them when it came time to fish. At the end, students went home with a Fishing 101 kit - including a fishing rod, net, tacklebox, scale - everything they need to fish on their own!
