(KAIR)--Warmer weather might mean days of fishing lie ahead, and local children this weekend will have the chance to hone their skills during the "Gone Fishin'" Fishing Clinic at Atchison State Fishing Lake.

A joint effort of Kansas Wildlife & Parks, the Atchison Family YMCA/Cray Community Center, and the Boy Scouts, the fishing clinic will run from 8:00 Saturday morning until 1:00 that afternoon and is open to children aged 6 through 12.

The clinic is free and lunch will be provided.

Wildlife & Parks will provide both fishing poles and bait for the children attending, either to improve their fishing skills or to learn how to do so for the first time.
