Hey "E",
Here is a few ideas. When I was younger I worked at a marina cleaning boats and worked my way up to doing electronics and such. This may not be directly fishing related but boats and fisherman kinda go hand and hand at times. I was invited on many trips and learned a great deal. Another idea is to work at some of the local tackle shops and sporting goods stores. You can be around the people that indulge in the sport. And last but not least would be to check into some of the guides in your area and be a deck hand. You could help prep the boat and gear and maybe even assist the clients when the captian is busy.
Good luck and work hard,
Pat (fish1on)
