Join the Panhandle Salt team for surf fishing lessons where you will learn the art of tying your own surf fishing rigs using a Bird of Prey Rig Board. These hands-on rig tying lessons are perfect for anglers of all skill levels who want to elevate their surf fishing experience. Mastering the creation and customization of your own pompano rigs is essential for any serious surf fisherman. Store-bought rigs can be difficult to find, and popular colors often sell out quickly—especially during peak pompano season. By acquiring the skills to tie your own, you’ll always be prepared and won’t be limited by what’s available in stores.
Our Florida Friendly Fishing Guide Certified instructors will provide you with the confidence and knowledge to:
* Create uniform, durable pompano rigs designed specifically for the Gulf Coast surf
* Adjust colors, beads, and floats to cater to seasonal bait preferences
* Save money and minimize downtime when rigs are in short supply at local shops
* Develop a personal rig-tying style that complements your fishing approach
Whether you’re a local angler in Perdido Key, Pensacola, Orange Beach, or just visiting the Gulf Coast, these practical surf fishing lessons will equip you with a rewarding skill that keeps you fishing effectively year-round.
