Did you catch your first fish at the "Walk in the Forest?" The Alabama Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries Division offers a first fish certificate.

Anticipation builds for fishing at Lanark.	These anglers are confident they will catch a fish.
This mother-daughter team is ready for a bite.	Their patience pays off with a big channel catfish.
Students listen to Mr. Jimmy explain how to catch fish with a cane pole.	Mr. Jimmy suggests students lift the pole gently when the bobber goes all the way under the water.
Green sunfish have pretty fins this time of year.	The bluegill bit on a piece of hot dog.
First graders learn about the coverings of animals. Some fish have scales.	This brave girl holds a channel catfish.
Fish were released back into the pond.	Bait should be carefully put on the sharp hook.

Catfish don't have scales, just skin and slime.
