Please tour our website for the latest on organized interscholastic sport fishing at the school level with the Scholastic Anglers Challenge underway and the Scholastic Anglers Finals set for May 29. 2010.  

There is not a designated season for interscholastic sport fishing, so with the Spring 2010 semester just starting, now is a great time to join in as we offer student-anglers in our schools an opportunity other than the traditional sports and athletics.  Scholastic Anglers is where schools form sport fishing teams doing something that keeps them positively involved with something at their school.

As more schools adopt sport fishing as a sport, school spirit, school pride, and new rivalries transcend into a whole new realm.  Scholastic Anglers also attracts student-anglers who might not otherwise be involved in traditional sports and athletics, while parents can now cheer at a school event.

The benefits of the Scholastic Anglers Program is far reachingnot only in the sport of fishing, but the academic realm as well:  the sciences, mathematics, social studies, reading, writing, and safety.

 The 2009-2010 Spring semester is underway and so is the Scholastic Anglers Challenge.  This is an event that takes place throughout the entire academic year.  Student-anglers from rival schools compete for the coveted Scholastic Anglers School Of The Year Title, the Scholastic Angler Of The Year, and the Scholastic Anglers Elite Eight.  Students are invited to join in at anytime and as the Spring Semester moves on, so will the interscholastic sport fishing action will too!

The Scholastic Anglers Challenge leads up to the Scholastic Anglers Championships that will be held on May 29, 2010 at Cane Creek Park, Union County.  During the Scholastic Anglers Challenge student-anglers are able to fish anytime, anywhere.  Point values are awarded for each fish species caught, photographed, and released.  The Scholastic Anglers Challenge provides student-anglers of all skill levels a chance to compete for fun, awards, prizes, and recognition.  Points are also earned through fishing related classroom assignments completed and entered just as fish catches, meeting attendance, Scholastic Anglers Workshop participation (the third thursday of each month at Boater's Marine, Monroe, NC), and fishing related jerseys.

The Scholastic Anglers organization believes in giving back to the community.  Scholastic Anglers has benefited such schools as:  Marvin Ridge, Parkwood, Central Academy, Weddington, Metrolina Christian Academy, and Union Academy.  These contributions have helped these schools put together sport fishing teams, provided lures, equipment, and supplies for prizes, awards, and incentives, as well as school fishing jerseys.  In addition, the Scholastic Anglers Championships provide trophies, prizes, awards, and recognition to countless student-anglers from various schools providing the ways and means to compete through interscholastic sport fishing.

The February Scholastic Anglers Workshop will be held on Thursday, February 18, 2010 from 7:00pm until 8:00pm at Boater's Marine, Monroe, NC.  The focus for this workshop will be maintenance...specifically reel maintenance, that is.  Student-anglers will  enjoy the challenge of repairing and/or tuning up their reels.  Reel oiling, restringing, or gear work...anything goes.  We will actually take apart reels down to the nuts and bolts and put them back together in better-than-new condition.  Is it clean?  Are all of the parts present?  Does everything work properly?  Does anything need to be repaired or replaced?  Learn what you need to keep your reel in good shape!  Student-anglers are encouraged to bring one of their all time favorite reels in for an EXTREME REEL MAKEOVER!  If no reel is available, there will be plenty of samples for practice.  Due to the money saving nature of this valuable learning experience, parents, friends, and neighbors are welcome to join in.  For more information, call 704-315-7071.
