The curriculum features hands-on lessons covering a multitude of topics, including knot tying, casting, macroinvertebrate studies, and understanding fish behavior and aquatic structures. Campers will also have the opportunity to apply their new skills in daily fishing competitions or travel offsite for exciting fishing trips to our local fish hotspots!
