Fishing Demonstration

By Atlantic Coastal Action Program (ACAP) Saint John

Event Details

Curious about what's swimming beneath the surface? Join ACAP SJ at Tin Can Beach for a hands-on seine net fishing demonstration!

What You'll Be Doing:

Our team will guide you through a live fish survey using seine net fishing, a simple but effective method for catching, identifying, and safely releasing local fish species. You'll get to see the process up close and learn what these catches tell us about the health of our waterbodies.

Why It Matters:

Fish populations are one of the clearest indicators of ecosystem health. By tracking what species are present and in what numbers, we can better understand water quality, habitat conditions, and the overall well-being of our local waterways.

No experience necessary, just bring your curiosity! All equipment will be provided.

You will very likely get wet, so please dress accordingly.
