Week #4: July 20-25, 2025
Week #5: July 27-August 1, 2025
(Session Full)
Ages: 13-15
Our “Hooked on Bass” camp will focus on fishing like a pro! Learn spin-casting techniques for topwater, plastics, spinnerbaits, and other proven lures and “put fish in the boat!”
After a day of practice and preparation, the campers will fish tournament-style for points. Fish are weighed and recorded in a fish log, and points are earned. On Friday morning, the leader in points is awarded the Greenland Point Bassmaster Championship award!
Campers will also take a trip to the ocean and try their hand at mackerel fishing. There will be plenty of time for all of the great camp activities available here at Greenland Point, such as swimming, Canoeing, archery, and more!
Cost: $675.00
