Did you know that Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge partners with Lago Vista Elementary each year to teach the entire school (350+ students) how to cast a fishing pole? Students are divided into small groups and learn to cast a fishing pole with plastic fish, no water needed.
Even if you aren’t a fisherman or fisherwoman, casting is easy and fun. We’ll teach you before the students arrive so you can help them enjoy this timeless outdoor recreational activity.
What: Backyard Bass Day at Lago Vista Elementary
Where: 20311 Dawn Drive Lago Vista
When: Tuesday, May 21 from 7:45 am – 12:15 pm
Why: Teach our local school kids how to cast so they can enjoy fishing
