Give a child a fish, feed him for a day; teach him to fish, feed him for a lifetime; teach him ethical angling, and protect his ability to fish for generations to come!

Saturday Fishing Club 8/28/10











Last Saturday was a huge day for all of us at the Florida Fishing Academy, as well as for the kids. We started out bright and early showing up at the Boat Ramp and met with Capt. Rich. The plans for the day were to work on the new Florida Fishing Academy building, go fishing, and cook lunch. The kids, along with some awesome volunteers, started removing the wood wrapping the building. Once the kids needed a brake we all went down to the water to start fishing. The fishing plan was to try catch some fish for our fish tank, as well as some larger fish. The kids caught some smaller fish for the tank, along with some big legal snappers and big grunts. Around noon Robert, one of the older students, starting grilling hot dogs and hamburgers for the students and volunteers. Very good I might add!! With full bellies everyone started working on the building again to finish removing all the wood from the outside of the building. We would like to thank all the volunteers, the students, and the City of Boynton Beach employees for all their hard work last Saturday and we can not wait to see how the building turns out when it is finished in a few weeks.
