Where to meet: 937341 Airport Road, Mulmur ON. The driveway for this location is unmarked, but is 200m south of the Mansfield Outdoor Center driveway.

NVCA staff will be using electrofishing equipment, which pulses electricity into the water to attract fish out of cover habitat. We need your help netting them!
