There is a surf fishing clinic for women at IBSP on Oct 3. This is one day before the annual fall surf fishing tournament on Oct 4.
It's a great way to give your wife or girlfriend a no-pressure intro to the surf fishing world. Only $15, which will be refunded if they show up. How can you argue with free? :D
