Are you ready to start casting? This is a project that was made for Montana. After all, a river runs through it! In this project, you'll soon discover that this project is more than just fishing. You will learn how to make your own fishing tackle, experience the world of aquatic ecology and explore the relationship between fish, people and the environment. You'll also learn about casting methods, how to decide on the proper tackle and much more. This project will be both fun and exciting, even if you've fished before.
