Shocking classes! Backpack or boating!
CPCB has the opportunity to host electrofishing courses offered by the Northwest Environmental Training Center. The classroom portion will be in our conference room at the Kansas Biological Survey, and the field portion at Clinton Lake. These three-day courses are intended to meet the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) training requirements for electrofishing field staff, and each also provides 2 units of continuing education.
