QUICK FACTS
Staffed by more than 20 local captains who will share their experience and insights
Sessions include six total hours of instruction and choices include inshore, nearshore (trolling and bottom), surf, kayak, offshore (trolling and bottom), and blue water fishing.
Topics for each session include techniques, equipment, strategy, locations, terminal tackle, electronics, bait, lures, etc.
Captains selected are specialists in their field, and their backyard waters include Morehead City, Atlantic Beach, Beaufort, Swansboro, Emerald Isle, Harkers Island, Oriental, New Bern, Washington, Nags Head, Hatteras, Wrightsville Beach, Carolina Beach, Sneads Ferry, and Topsail.
Main seminars and breakout sessions going on concurrently all day long, so you will always be able to find a session that most interests you.
Main seminars have up to three captains working together to thoroughly cover their particular subject material, as well as give their different perspectives on what works for them.
All of the main seminars will be recorded, and you can purchase access to those recordings.
The breakout sessions are smaller and give greater access to the captain/instructor. This personal approach greatly enhances your walk-away knowledge.
The school is supplied by Chasin’ Tails Outdoors and our many tackle manufacturer sponsors.
