How It Works

Yes. Discounted fee

Safety covered before youth touches anything & repeated throughout. Guardians will sign a release of liability, as with most youth activities.

If not a good swimmer; use yours or ours; life ring and first aid kit always handy. Tom has had training as a lifeguard. 

Lakes,  beaches, bays, and rivers. From land, not a boat, in Atlantic County, NJ.

Rods, reels, terminal tackle, other gear and bait provided at no extra cost. If youth drops/throws rod and reel into water, guardian will reimburse cost.

All initial lessons are 1:1 for maximum safety and success. Two siblings might participate together after individual lesson(s), depending. Please call to discuss options.  732-689-5948.

For freshwater, depends on age. No license for saltwater.

You transport both ways

It depends on the severity of cognitive, behavioral, physical challenges.  A very hyperactive, aggressive, or defiant youth is not a good fit. A youth in a wheelchair might do well, with parental assistance.   Please call to discuss. 732-689-5948
