Junior Olympic Archery
Development and Adult
Archery Program
April 3 – June 27
Nebraska Game and Parks Outdoor Education
Center in Lincoln
If you'd like to develop your archery skills, consider joining
this 10-week program for adults and kids ages 8 and up. With
the help of expert instructors, students work at their own pace
while striving to develop their form and meet their archery goals,
whether that is recreational enjoyment or competition. Four
programs are available at different times; two begin Monday,
April 3, and two begin the following day. Call the center at
402-471-6141 to learn more and sign up.
White Bass Fishing
Late April
Statewide
This open-water predator is spawning at
reservoirs across the state. According to
the 2017 Nebraska Game and Parks Fishing
Forecast, the top reservoirs for white bass
fishing are Swanson and Harlan County.
Sherman, Maloney, McConaughy and
Calamus are also good bets. If you're in
search of the largest white bass – perhaps
exceeding 15 inches – visit Minatare, Elwood
and Lewis & Clark.
