Angler Academy 2021

Angler Academy is the Gulf State Park’s beginners guide to becoming a salt water fisherman! This experience takes place at the 1,540 foot long Gulf State Park pier, the second longest pier along the Gulf Coast.

 

We will begin by learning about some essential skills, including the rules and regulations of saltwater fishing in the state of Alabama, as well as the basic tools and necessities every fisherman needs! By the end of this experience, first time anglers will have the knowledge necessary to fish on their own! Each angler will have the chance to practice tying some of the essential knots, gain an understanding for the most commonly used hooks, and learn how to attach bait to the hooks.

 

No matter if this is your very first time, or your thousandth time, with the basic concepts and techniques, even first timers can become pros! (As long as the fish are biting..)
