“As summer comes to a close and school is just around the corner, we want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to North Florida Fishing Camp for another incredible season. A huge thank you to Joe and Katie, the heart and soul behind this amazing program. Your knowledge, passion, and above all, your patience with the young anglers are unmatched. You’ve created something truly special here in Jacksonville Beach — a place where kids not only learn to fish, but gain confidence, appreciation for the outdoors, and lifelong memories. Your camp is a real asset to our community, and we’re so thankful for the kindness, encouragement, and dedication you show to every child who walks through your program. We’re already looking forward to next summer!”

“Highly recommend! Our son had a wonderful time fishing different captain’s boats every day, even catching fish he’s never seen before! They made him feel very safe and comfortable, even though he was nervous at first. He couldn’t wait for the next day every night. The fish fry at the end of the week with everyone’s catches was his favorite. He cannot wait until next time!”

“Captain Joe and North FL Fishing Camp are incredible. They are true professionals who know how to put kids on the fish! They taught my child how to cast, tie knots, and properly handle fish. The passion the instructors have for fishing is contagious, and my child left wanting to go back again and again.”

“By far the best camp my son has gone to. Usually he dreads summer “camp” but he absolutely loved each day… so much so, that we signed him up for more. Thank you NFFC Team!”

“Joe was very professional and provided a very thorough safety briefing, worked with my 12 year old with his rod, reel and tackle and patiently provided instruction on casting! I highly recommend this experience for any aspiring young angler.”

“My son loved NFFC. Since we left, he is asking when he can come back. He has developed a new passion for fishing. Well organized. If they offered sleep away for 4 weeks I would sign up in a heartbeat.”
