SUMMARY:Surfside\, TX - 1-Day Saltwater Fishing Event
DESCRIPTION:Volunteer Boat Owner tickets are still available; however\, if you would like to be notified of last-minute Participant openings\, please click on the ‘waiting list’ link below.  In your e-mail\, please include your cell phone number so that we can reach you quickly.\n“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 reach men with the gospel of Jesus Christ and build relationships that support the discipleship of these men. \nDate: \nSaturday\, May 24th from 6:00 am until 2:00 pm. \nLocation: \nSurfside Beach Public Boat Ramp (Coast Guard Dr\, Surfside Beach\, TX  77541).  We will have lunch at a local restaurant after fishing. \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. \nMinimum Age: Youth anglers must be accompanied by a guardian.  Limit one youth participant per adult guardian\, no exceptions. \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 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. \nParticipants will arrive at 6:00 am to be checked in and paired up for the day of fishing. \nMeals: \nAfter fishing\, everyone is invited to a group lunch at a local restaurant at 1pm.  The lunch location will be announced at check in.  Please bring cash to cover your lunch. \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 poles and associated gear. Don’t expect volunteer boat owners to lend out their gear or tackle\nAdults accompanied by a youth angler must bring a properly-sized life jacket for the youth angler\nCash for boat gas\, ice\, or any live bait you would like to use.\nCash for lunch afterwards.\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 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 weekend trip with friends.\n\nSuggested tackle:  \nPlan to fish for redfish and speckled trout. 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.
