Fisherman’s Post, the media group that covers all the saltwater fishing action along the Carolina coast, will be putting on two schools in its nineteenth year of hosting the Saltwater Fishing Schools.
The first in-person school in 2025 is the Morehead Saltwater School. It is a full day school, and the date is Saturday, February 22, 2025, at the Crystal Coast Civic Center on Arendell Street from 7:30 am-5:00 pm.
The second in-person school in 2025 is the Wilmington Saltwater School. It is a full day school, and the date is Saturday, March 8, 2025, at Roland Grise Middle School (4412 Lake Ave., Wilmington, NC 28403) from 7:30 am-5:00 pm.
You can also gain access to video recordings of all the Main Seminars, and these video recordings are available for purchase for those who attend in-person or for those that wish to enjoy all the knowledge and insights from the comfort of their home (and have unlimited access for three months after the school date). Both the Wilmington Main Seminar video recordings and the Morehead Main Seminar video recordings are available, and both schools offer access to the Inshore Main Seminars and/or the Offshore Main Seminars.
Please visit each school’s webpage for much more detailed information, including a list of sessions, captains, topics, as well as venue directions, ticket ordering instructions, and a list of everything included in the ticket price.
