Canoe & Kayak Fishing the National Wild & Scenic Clarion River: Cooksburg-Gravel Lick

Free Event

Come celebrate the Clarion River’s recent River of the Year designation at Cook Forest State Park who will be conducting a 4-mile guided interpretive fishing program for experienced canoeists & kayakers only.  Smallmouth bass, trout, and walleye are often caught along this stretch of river if one is patient and using the right rig.  We will begin promptly at the old Park Office.  Remember to bring your fishing poles, license, and proper river footwear: flip-flops are bad, old ratty sneakers are good.  Cost is $30/boat with check or money order made out to the ‘Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’.  Lunch, as well as all canoeing & kayaking gear provided.  Participants must pre-register by contacting the Park Office at (814)744-8407 no later than  7/31/19.  Prior Cook Forest kayak training participants receive a 50% discount.  Space is limited, so please reserve early.
