Tommy was taught the fine art of panfishing by his Chickasaw Grandmother in the backwoods of Oklahoma. He’s fished from the reservoirs and rivers of Nowhere Nevada to the Umpqua of the Northern Pacific, to the Paradise of 10,000 Lakes. With 14 distinct species and a thousand verifiable catches, join SLPs resident “Atomic Tommy”, and learn the basic as well as pro fishing tips. Rods and reels provided for clinic. Afterwards, fishing for kids and families all day in our stocked pond, until 6 pm. Bring your own rod and reel! Note that anglers 16 and older must be licensed. Wolfe Park Pond
