Inshore Fishing Classes
The class is one to two hours on inshore fishing for one to two people. The instruction will be from the boat. We will be close to the marina. The cost is $100 for each person for the first hour then $50 (per person) for an additional hour. The class will be designed around what you would like to learn more about.
