Choose from engaging hands-on fishing experiences, STEM, STEAM, SEL classroom sessions, outdoor adventures, or our flexible online course.
“Everything We Do Is Built on One Proven System”
At Reelin Family Fun, every experience we offer is built on the same foundation — our Angler In Training Adventures Program, a hands-on, kid-centered outdoor learning system designed to spark excitement, build confidence, and create meaningful connections with nature.
This isn’t just a set of fishing activities. It’s a carefully crafted approach to teaching life skills through the outdoors.
Every part of our program is rooted in:
Encouraging curiosity and confidence
Learning by doing, not just watching
Building real-world outdoor and STEM-based skills
Teaching respect for nature and conservation
Helping families and groups connect in meaningful ways
Making the outdoors fun, safe, and accessible for everyone
Because everything flows from one proven system, you’ll get the same quality, structure, and heart — whether it’s your family-online or in person, group event, event pop-up, indoor station setup, seasonal class, or custom program.
Same mission. Same values. Same trusted curriculum.
Delivered in the way that fits your family or group best.

How Fishing Becomes STEM, STEAM & SEL Learning
Fishing isn’t just an activity — it’s a hands-on learning experience that naturally connects kids to real-world skills.
STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math)
Through fishing, kids explore:
Fish habitats, ecosystems, and environmental science
Cause-and-effect (bait choice, casting angle, water conditions)
Measurement, counting, and basic data tracking
Problem-solving through trial and adjustment
STEAM (STEM + Creativity)
Our programs add creativity and exploration by:
Encouraging curiosity and observation
Using hands-on stations and interactive challenges
Connecting nature-based learning with imagination and storytelling
SEL (Social & Emotional Learning)
Fishing builds essential life skills like:
Patience and focus
Confidence through skill mastery
Teamwork, communication, and turn-taking
Respect for nature, peers, and instructors
Event Support & Safety
Because we are a small-but-mighty team, programs and events require your staff, helpers or volunteers provided by the hosting organization. We’ll let you know exactly what’s needed during planning so everything runs smoothly. Safety first — all programs follow a structured, safety-focused approach with insured activities and guided supervision.
At Reelin’ Family Fun, we believe fishing opens the door to confidence, curiosity, family connection, and a lifelong love for the outdoors.
Our Angler In Training Adventures Program and family-centered experiences are designed to educate, empower, and inspire young anglers — whether they are absolute beginners or already love the water.
