Kids and families can experience the thrill of catch-and-release fishing and discover marine life on our very own Hudson River. During Go Fish! you don’t have to worry they will use barbless hooks to minimize injuries to both fish and participants. The fish caught are placed in saltwater tanks for observation and identification before being released back into the Hudson. Live demonstrations and displays teach fish anatomy and heighten awareness of the ecology, flourishing marine life and current state of good health of the Hudson River.

Kids will also have a chance to work on fun art projects, bird watching as well as a kids concert with the Suzi Shelton Band.
