SUMMARY:Texas City\, TX | 1-Day Fishing Event
DESCRIPTION:“I’m going out to fish\,” Simon Peter told them\, and they said\, “We’ll go with you.” So they went out and got into the boat… John 21:3 \nPurpose: \nTo build meaningful relationships with other outdoorsmen for the purpose of leading them to\, or back to\, Jesus Christ. \nDate: \nFriday\, August 8th\, 2025 from 5:30 AM until 1:00 PM at the Texas City Dike. \nRegistration:  \nFree!  Space is limited so register now.  We will prioritize opportunities for those who have not attended Blast & Cast events in the past.  Veteran Blast & Cast participants should find a way to volunteer and support the event. \n\nAge Limitations: Daughters are welcome at this event.  Minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.  Please limit one youth per adult (i.e. father and son/daughter).\n\nFishing: \nWe will have volunteers present along with their boats. Our volunteer boat owners are not licensed guides and are not being compensated for the trip. No tips are allowed\, but please bring cash to chip in for your portion of gas\, ice\, and bait.  Each volunteer boat owner will be assigned a fishing party that is suitable to their boat and style of fishing. While we keep fathers and sons/daughters together\, usually you will be fishing with people you don’t know. This is done purposefully so please don’t be surprised. Please be flexible in your style of fishing and plan to follow the lead of the boat owner you are assigned to.  Essentially\, treat this like a fishing trip with a friend… this is NOT a guided trip. \nParty assignments will be announced after the morning devotion. \nMeals: \n\nPlease bring snacks and drinks to bring on the boat.\nAfter fishing\, everyone is invited to join us for a group lunch at a local restaurant.\n\nRules: \n\nNo perfect people allowed. Come as you are\, no pretending.\nAlcohol will not be allowed on boats but will be allowed in moderation after the boat is on the trailer.\nPlease be mindful of your language when youth participants are around.\nHave a good time.\n\nWhat to bring:  \n\nValid Texas saltwater fishing license\nEveryone should bring their own fishing gear.  Don’t expect volunteer boat owners to lend out their gear or tackle\nCash for boat gas\, ice and lunch\, or any live bait you would like to use\nBoat snacks and drinks (no alcohol on the boats\, please).\nSunscreen\, hat\, and sunglasses\nFilet knife and Ziploc bags – plan to clean your own fish\, please.\nA cooler to bring fish home\nA lawn chair (there is no seating at the pavilion)\nA willing attitude that’s eager to help make it work and have a good time – remember\, everyone there is a volunteer\, so set your expectations as though you are going on a fishing trip with friends.\n\nSuggested tackle:  \nPlan to fish for trout\, redfish\, and flounder. Each fisherman should bring their own rod. Appropriate rods are medium-light to medium action\, 6-7ft long\, either spinning or bait-casting. 12lb test monofilament or 20-30lb test braided line is sufficient.
