Surf Fishing Class Today at Delaware Seashore State Park

If you’ve been waiting for the chance to learn how to surf fish, but aren’t sure just where to begin, Delaware Seashore State Park has a program planned for you! Join parks staff on Friday, May 27 from noon-3 p.m. for an introductory class in surf-fishing. 

This class will provide beginning surf-fishers with a foundation in the art and practice of the sport. This program will cover what equipment to use, current rules and regulations, and fish identification, as well as the opportunity to practice their techniques. Participants must be at least 10 years old and those under 16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.  Participants also must have a valid General Fishing License (GFL) and Fisherman Identification Number (FIN) as required by the State of Delaware.

This class costs $25 per person and includes use of rod, reel, tackle, and bait. Space is limited so please pre-register for this program which will meet at the Indian River Life-Saving Station and Museum, which is located on Route 1 in Delaware Seashore State Park, 3.5 miles south of Dewey Beach and 1.5 miles north of the Indian River Inlet. To pre-register, or to get more information on this or other programs, call (302) 227-6991.
