Youth Fshing Event Scheduled for VernoniaOregon Department of Fish and Wildlife — 4/17/2006ODFW is adding 750 legal and 50 trophy rainbow trout to Vernonia Pond in addition to regular ODFW stocking. The event is part of the Youth Angling Enhancement Program and coincides with Vernonia's Annual Riverfest. Representatives from ODFW and volunteers from Northwest Steelheaders will provide fishing equipment and angling instruction from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. "This is a great opportunity to introduce children to the fun of fishing and encourage participation in outdoor recreation activities," said North Coast Salmon and Trout Enhancement Program Biologist Tracy Crews. The program is funded through a $50,000 appropriation from the Oregon Legislature and a partnership with the Oregon Wildlife Heritage Foundation, which has pledged an additional $50,000 and is working with ODFW to develop and promote youth fishing opportunities throughout the state. Fish are purchased from private facilities. Anglers 13 years of age and under can fish for free. A juvenile license is required for anglers 14-17 years of age. All state fishing regulations continue to apply.
