Saltwater Fishing for Beginners - North Port   

This class is for people who are new to saltwater fishing in Florida. Maybe you have fished in Florida but still consider yourself a novice. Come join our class! There are always some new tips and tricks to learn, including: • What kind of rod and reels you need and how to use them. • What kind of tackle to use: hooks, sinkers, popping corks, leaders, etc. • Fishing from a boat, kayak, pier, and surf fishing. • What live baits to use and how to use them. • What artificial lures work best for different species of fish. • How to catch seatrout, redfish, snook, flounder, and other inshore species. • Safety concerns when fishing from a kayak and boat. • How to tie a variety of fishing knots. This is a 6-hour class spread out over 3 days. The first two class meetings will be in a classroom. The third class will be a hands-on class at Boca Grande Beach. During the first class you will be told what to bring for fishing on the beach. I will recommend several good bait shops for buying fishing equipment.

Please bring a fishing pole and tackle. A detailed supply list will be given out during the first class meeting. A saltwater fishing license is required for Florida Residents under 65 years old, but not required for Florida residents over 65. This will be reviewed in the first class.

 

Must be physically able to climb stairs and walk along the sandy beach to fully participate in the fishing field trip portion of this class.
