Fish Camp will provide a 15-passenger van to transport participants to the various fishing locations and learning experiences.

Some anglers are comfortable with their own gear and we encourage you to bring it if this applies to you; however, the camp will also be able to provide rods and equipment to anyone without gear. All participants will also be receiving some awesome fishing swag.
