Event description
Join us for a family-friendly fishing outing on the Willamette River at Cathedral Park. You'll learn about fishing, and which fish are okay and not okay to eat from the river.
If you’re new to fishing, this is a great way to try it. Fishing experts will be there to help, and we’ll have limited loaner gear available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Win prizes for biggest carp, most fish, youngest fisher to catch a fish and more!
Everyone welcome. No registration, just show up.
Offered in partnership with the Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife, Oregon Health Authority and Get Hooked.
