The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources is hosting an ice-fishing seminar to get new and beginning ice anglers ready to step onto the ice this season! Our biologists will be cover the basics of ice fishing and share sportfish-species-specific insight into a few central Utah reservoirs. This seminar is a great opportunity for anyone interested in getting into ice fishing, new to ice fishing, or interested in picking up a few tips on targeting specific fish species through the ice.

What to expect:

• We will cover the basics of ice fishing including ice safety, winter angler access, equipment, lure selection, fish biology and fishing techniques.
• We will cover basic tips to get you started and advice for targeting specific species.
• We will discuss a few specific angling opportunities at some sites most likely to get ice this season.
• Time for Q&A at the end.
• Note: this seminar will be recorded to be made available on DWR YouTube.

Looking for a relaxed way to connect with other nature lovers? Join us for a birding social hour — a casual meet-up for adults who enjoy good conversation, fresh air, and a shared appreciation for wildlife.

An experienced birder will guide the group on a walk around our wetlands trail — typically about 1.5 miles. Whether you’re new to birding or already have a life list, this is a great way to unwind, learn something new, and meet other people who enjoy the outdoors. 

This event is free to attend, but we ask guests to bring a non-perishable canned food item to donate. We’ve partnered with the Bountiful Food Pantry to support those facing food insecurity in our community.
