Absolutely! The Outdoor Campus will supply all of the gear needed to get you in the water and catching fish. Simply show up at a group meet-up in clothes that you don't mind getting dirty or wet, and we'll get you set up with a rod and supplies.
Once you're ready to purchase your own gear, we'll provide recommendations on what to buy!
