Every program description needs a hook, but this program already has plenty of them. Join us to learn the basics of saltwater fishing from a dock. Participants will be taught how to cast, tie fishing knots, and hopefully catch a fish. Register by calling the front office at 804-642-2419. Participants aged 16 and older must have a saltwater fishing license. Maximum of 13 participants. Rods, reels, rigs and bait will be provided by the park.

We strive to make our programming and special event opportunities accessible and inclusive to all. If you have any concern, please reach out to our front office to speak with a ranger or contact us through the park email address. We will attempt to accommodate all individuals or families for their unique circumstances and can do so best with advanced communication.
