Poynter Park Fishing Trip

Join us for another fishing trip at Poynter Park! This will be a great opportunity for anglers of all skill levels to come together, practice our skills and hopefully catch some fish! We will be teaching ethical fishing practices and abiding by all rules and regulations of the law.

BEGINNERS ARE WELCOME & gear is provided for those who need it!

Poynter Park is the seawall located between Harbor Hall and the Nelson Poynter Memorial Library. Students with parking permits can park in the USFSP parking garage. The address provided on this page is not accurate, this is the address for the parking lot behind Harbor Hall, which is also parking for Poynter Park.

!!BEFORE YOU COME - Please make sure you have a valid Florida fishing license. These can be obtained from gooutdoorsflorida.com, your local tax collector, wal-mart, or sporting goods store. We will accept a print out, card, or screenshot as proof.

!!ALSO - Please make sure you have joined the sport club federation on Bulls Connect here https://bullsconnect.usf.edu/SCF/ and fill out the "Sport Club Participation Waiver Form" under resources - surveys and forms.
