Summer Inshore Camps with a Charter Captain - 4 Days

Take your fishing skills to the next level with our specialized fishing camps! These camps include two days of fishing on a charter boat, exploring the Intracoastal Waterway and Near Shore in the Atlantic Ocean for just $750.  

Day 1: “Beach Day”  

The day begins at 8:00 am and ends at 12:00 pm, with locations varying from Mickler’s beach access to the public beach access at the Reef restaurant in South Ponte Vedra Beach.  

Activities will focus on providing intermediate fishing lessons, teaching techniques and strategies that will allow campers to surf fish from the beach safely and effectively. Campers will learn to identify commonly caught species, which baits to use for success, and how to safely handle the species they catch.

The day begins at 8:00 am and ends at 12:00 pm. Locations will vary from either The Usina Pier in Vilano Beach or the public pier at Aunt Kate’s restaurant in South Ponte Vedra Beach, both of which are great spots for fishing camps. Activities will focus on teaching techniques and strategies that will allow campers to fish from a pier or dock safely and effectively. Campers will learn to identify commonly caught species, which baits to use to be successful, and how to safely handle species they catch, similar to the skills taught in intermediate fishing lessons or on a charter boat fishing trip.

Fishing on a charter boat with an experienced captain is an incredible experience! Campers at our fishing camps will alternate between one inshore day and one offshore/near shore day. Activities will include either an inshore or near shore/offshore day, with the near shore day meeting at Aunt Kate's Restaurant in Vilano Beach. During these intermediate fishing lessons, campers will learn techniques and strategies for targeting inshore species such as kingfish, cobia, sharks, and other near shore species. Campers will spend approximately 4 hours on the boat during the inshore day.
