Fishing around

This one’s for the fishes!

On June 5 at the Staten Island Zoo, children — ages 6 and older — can learn everything about the art of fishing.

Step-by-step instruction will be provided but participants must provide their own equipment. There’s never been a better time to invest in a rod and tackle box.

After all, fishing’s a hobby your family will enjoy all summer long.

“Gone Fishing” at the Staten Island Zoo [614 Broadway at Martling Avenue in West Brighton, (718) 442-3101], June 5 from 10 am to 1 pm. Admission $8 adults, $6 seniors, $5 for children (ages 3-14), and free for kids under 3 years. For info, visit www.statenislandzoo.org.
