Every month we have boat captains that volunteer their Saturday morning to our youth anglers, therefore we’d like to extend our thanks to the following: Terry Seabolt, Billy Ellerbee, Jim Newell, Robin Clegg, Josh Clay, Raul Martinez, Paul Lynch and Robert Hertzer.

Thank you to our community for the support we were shown at our February Car Wash. The kids had a great time and are looking forward to the next one.

We will be accepting applications for the 2021 season throughout the year. If you have a youth angler between the ages of 9-19 that loves fishing or wants to learn a new sport, please reach out to Danielle at 561 436-8491 or bota.danielle@gmail.com.
