Event Details

Our ‘on the water’ social / educational and competitive events are scheduled to take place alternately on every second or third weekend from April through to November. Events, with the exception of ‘off the bank’ seminars discussed above, will typically take place on Saturday or Sunday mornings. Our events are open to both members and non-members of the JJCAC. Although club membership is encouraged, non-club members are welcome to fish as guests for their first (complementary) event.

Each event is tailored so that all anglers, from the greenest rookie through to the most seasoned veteran angler, will experience an enjoyable and worthwhile day on the water. Parents and their kids, especially those wishing to capture their first fish, are encouraged to attend educational / social events; while casual or beginning anglers will be able to quickly hone their bank fishing skills through learning more about rigs and tactics during friendly and informal pre-event demonstrations at competitive events. Please e-mail Patrick if you have any questions regarding any of our ‘on the water’ activities.

Bankfishing seminars are also organized on a monthly basis throughout the remaining cooler months (September – March). Each event will take place on a mid-week evening and feature an entertaining ‘in house’ or specially invited guest speaker, as well as hands on demonstrations and activities. Most seminars will take place at Joliet Junior College.
