FWC is hosting a free fishing clinic in Nassau County on Saturday.
The Kids’ Fishing Clinic for children between 5 and 15 years old will be held at Amelia Island State Park near the George Crady Bridge Fishing Pier from 9 a.m. to noon.
The clinics aim to help young people learn the basics of conservation stewardship, fishing ethics, angling skills and safety, FWC said.

Organizers will have fishing equipment and bait for kids to use during the clinic, but organizers encourage children who own fishing tackle to bring it.
A limited number of rods and reels will be given away to participants after the clinic.
If conditions allow, participants will have the opportunity to practice their new skills and fish from the pier. This event is a photo catch-and-release activity. An adult must accompany all participants.
