College Fishing Opportunities and Recommendations

As a kid from a non-fishing family, at a time before competitive collegiate fishing really existed, I wouldn’t have known to look for fishing opportunities in college. I thought I was there to learn, find a girlfriend, puke in inappropriate places, and eventually get a job. Today’s kids are smarter and savvier, though. They know that college can fulfill a greater set of needs.

If you or some young person you know is headed off to higher education, and loves to fish, consider some of the following expert sources:
