There’s no better way to kick off a day than with a fishing rod in hand and the promise of adventure ahead! Our recent Fishing Basics Clinic brought together enthusiastic young anglers ready to learn the skills they need to enjoy the lifelong sport of fishing.
Participants started the afternoon by diving into the fundamentals of fishing. They learned about safety while on or near the water, how to properly use a spin cast and spinning combo, and the importance of casting safely and accurately. We also covered how to tie two essential fishing knots—the Clinch and Palomar—discussed both live and artificial bait, and explained how different fishing presentations can attract different species. Youth also gained an understanding of aquatic invasive species and the impact they have on our waters.
Each participant received an Off Shore Tackle Company cooler and a Go Fishing education book thanks to our sponsors.
Thank you to all the partners, and teachers who helped make the day a success. Whether it was a child’s first fish or their first time holding a rod, the excitement and confidence gained were unforgettable.
