Welcome to CD Outdoors!

CD Outdoors' Fishing Camps offer fun, hands-on educational activities that teach young anglers (boys and girls ages 8-13) how to ‘think like a fish.’ If you’re looking for an active outdoor program for your youngster this summer, our camps are it! Sponsored in part by our friends at Tackle Cove. Activities include:
  • Learning to fish, or improve your fishing skills, with expert help.
  • Exploring marshes,creeks, oyster reefs.
  • Catching bait fish, crabs, shrimp and clams using seine and cast nets.
  • Analyzing marine charts to know out where game fish can be found.
  • Learning to tie fishing knots, lures and bait rigs.
  • Fishing for game fish using the skills we learn in camp.
  • Fish printing (making T-shirts using fish and fabric paint.)
