Long Lake Youth Fishing Program • Register • View Cart •

The Long Lake Fishing Program offers an immersive and enriching experience tailored for young anglers. Designed to foster a deeper appreciation for fishing, environmental stewardship, and the great outdoors. Our program provides an ideal platform for young anglers to develop their skills and cultivate their love for nature.

Participants begin their journey as novice fishermen, receiving comprehensive instruction in introductory fishing and boating techniques. From learning how to care for their equipment and tie knots to mastering the art of baiting lines, casting, and understanding fish habitats.  As their knowledge expands, they will be introduced to more advanced techniques and embark on excursions to various parts of the lake in pursuit of landing the ultimate catch.

In addition to targeting Bass, participants will explore the diversity of the lake's fish species and honing their skills through week-long tournament-style fishing competitions. These friendly contests encompass categories such as most fish caught, largest catch for each species, total overall weight, and more, all while maintaining a focus on enjoyment and the acquisition of lifelong fishing strategies.

What to Expect:




  • A strong emphasis on boating safety, sun protection, and ethical catch-and-release practices.


  • Instruction on identifying fishing holding areas and understanding feeding patterns.


  • Lessons covering various fishing methods and presentations.


  • Guidance on effectively using different artificial baits, including topwater, spinner baits, plastics, and live bait.


  • Instruction on fishing techniques such as trolling, anchoring, and drifting.




The Long Lake Fishing Program promises not only skill development but also a memorable and enjoyable experience centered around the joys of fishing and appreciation for the natural world.
