ABOUT US
Welcome to Tarpon Springs Fishing Club, Inc., home of the River Rats! Our organization is a 501c3 nonprofit whose mission is to educate and encourage kids and families, in fact everyone, to spend time in and on the local waters of Tarpon Springs, whether fishing, boating or sailing, and enjoy the beautiful marine environment we are blessed to have. We are passionate about pulling kids (and folks of all ages!) away from their screens, getting them "off-line" and outside "on-line"... a fishing line! Come to meetings and experience the camaraderie and light-hearted competition that exists among fishermen and boaters that builds friendships in a way that Facebook can't! Activities for all ages planned: fun tournaments, community outreach, picnics, parades, fish fries and more! Join us on the 3rd Monday of each month at 6:30 for snacks and to purchase raffle tickets, and 7:00 to learn from a speaker, make friends, and get in on the raffle! Be a part of something bigger than you... you won't walk away disappointed!
