Here’s a seminar that will lure you: the South Florida “Ladies, Let’s Go Fishing!” University will conduct a freshwater fishing seminar with guided fishing Feb. 20 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Bass Pro Shops in Dania Beach.
The event, hosted by the nonprofit Ladies, Let’s Go Fishing! Foundation, includes classroom instruction, conservation and hands-on fishing activities – equipment and bait will be provided.
“Perfect for women, men and teens who want to learn techniques for targeting peacock bass and other freshwater species, the program offers rod and reel basics, lure usage, casting techniques, fish retrieval, fish release, strategy and conservation, followed by hands-on fishing skill practice for knot tying, spin casting, releasing, fish fighting techniques and more,” explains a press release. “After the lunch break there will be an all-release fishing experience from the shore of a private lake known for its elusive peacock bass.”
No experience is necessary for the event. The Ladies, Let’s Go Fishing! Foundation, known as the “No-Yelling School of Fishing,” is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization “dedicated to attracting women and families to fishing while encouraging conservation and responsible angling.” It conducts weekend, immersion-based educational programs.
