Now’s your chance to get the kids out on the ice🎣

🧊🚨 Update🚨🧊 -2/15/25
School Vacation kicks off tomorrow and we’ve still got some weekday openings if you’re looking to get the kids out of the house and onto the ice!

Let’s be honest… screens, video games, and TikTok will still be there next week....Smelt season won’t. 😄

Fishing has slowed down a bit compared to the start of the year, but we’re still catching some and the good times are rolling just the same. The kids are having a blast, the camps are warm, and there’s nothing better than watching them pull up their first smelt through the ice.

If you’ve been waiting to book, now’s the time. February’s a short, unpredictable month and odds are we’ll be pulling camps by the end of it.

Give the office a call to grab a spot and make some school vacation memories 🎣

We know nobody wants to talk about the end of smelt season… but open water will be here before we know it😬

Why not fish and listen to the game!?! GO PATS🏈

Not sure what your plans are for the game tonight, and looking to do something a little different? We’ve still got openings for this evening’s 7pm tide🎣

Come down, drop a line, and listen to the Patriots take on the Seahawks right from the smelt camp.

And don’t worry… there’s no noise ordinance on our ice😉 Cheering for your team or your catch is not only allowed, it’s encouraged🤘🎣

Not many more chances to fish this season! Call D’s Camps to book your camp today

🚨🧊 Update- 2/6/26🧊🚨
🎣 Don’t Wait Too Long… 🎣

Now that we’re into February and the weather starts getting a little less predictable, we know what that means... The season is heading toward the home stretch.

We typically start pulling camps near the end of February, so if you’ve been saying “we’ve gotta get out there before the season’s over,” this is your sign!

The good news is the fish seem to have bounced back some. We’ve been seeing better action again, especially on our evening tides.

With school vacation coming up, it’s also a great chance to bring the kids down and sneak in some weekday fishing. Those trips always end up being the ones everyone remembers.

If you’re thinking about getting out one more time before the ice is gone, give the office a call ASAP and we’ll get you set up for one of the remaining tides.

New at D’s Camps 🎣 Call them to check availability!

New at D’s Camps 🎣

We’re now offering custom-made jig boards for rent during your tide.

Jig board rentals are $15 per board per tide and they’re much more sensitive than our house lines. They proved their worth last night when the guy who built them came down with his own boards and landed about three dozen smelts. Hard to argue with results like that.

If you’d like to try one out, just give us a shout. Jig boards are first come, first served, or you can reserve one when you make your camp reservation.

Call the office to check availability.
