This past weekend, we had the incredible opportunity to host three Learn 2 Fish seminars at the Wisconsin Fishing Expo, and what an experience it was! From eager young anglers to adults looking to refine their skills, we saw firsthand how passionate people are about the sport of fishing.
A huge thank you to the Wisconsin Fishing Expo for providing us with a private room where we could engage with attendees on a deeper level after each seminar. These one-on-one and small group interactions allowed us to answer questions, share tips, and help set up new anglers for success on the water.
Of course, this wouldn’t have been possible without the support of our amazing sponsors. Wildlife Forever, Getting Families Fishing and Boating, and our other great sponsors and donors, helped ensure that each participant left not only with knowledge but also with the tools they need to get started—fishing combos, shirts, mini tackle boxes filled with tackle, and educational fishing books were provided to attendees. These resources make a huge difference in turning interest into action, helping families get out on the water with confidence.
One of the most rewarding moments of the weekend came from hearing feedback like this: “Me and my daughter attended both seminars on Saturday and were very appreciative of the info that was shared. Many thanks for what you are doing for the youth! Keep up the good work.” – Paul Soldner
This is exactly why we do what we do—fostering a love for fishing, conservation, and the great outdoors in the next generation.
A big shoutout to everyone who attended, supported, and helped make these seminars a success. The future of fishing is bright, and we’re grateful to be part of the journey!
