FISHING LICENSES (for those 16 or older) - If you are 16 or older, and want to fish, you will need a saltwater license. If you fish from shore, it is free, if you want to fish from the canoe, it costs $17 for an annual license. You can get these from Walmart or HERE.
SPECIAL PACKING NOTES Use the following to Pack Yourself using
these 3 things below. When you’re done, if you are a new scout,
have your parents check you:

So, here are some additional packing
suggestions/requirements that are not in the Scout Book or Information Sheet,

- Whistle (required to wear while canoeing)
- Make everything water proof – Put stuff in
Zip-locks and/or put the whole thing in garbage bags.

zip-lock). There’s a lot of wildlife.
- Those who are using hammocks, you’ll need
mosquito netting. Either full netting, or face netting and wear long
clothing. Everyone needs bug spray.
- If you like fishing, you want to prepare for
that. River fishing for sure, and Surf Fishing if you have the gear
for it.
- Entertainment for the ride. Bring a
book, magazine, read your scout book for the 1 ½ hour trip.
- Bagged lunch on Friday (this is in the
Information sheet, so you should have read it already)
