Shore Fishing Lesson

Shore Fishing Lesson

  • Within 20 miles of Roseville
  • 2 hours

We'll meet at a local bank spot within 20 miles of Roseville for a two-hour shore lesson covering rigging, casting, and bait setups. It's a great way to learn the basics or get the kids started, and the $100 flat rate covers the whole two-hour session rather than per person.
