The gloomy weather didn’t stop thousands of fishing enthusiasts from attending the Wisconsin Fishing Expo Feb. 22-24 in Madison. Anglers from all over gathered at the Alliant Energy Center Exposition Hall to enjoy hundreds of fishing exhibits and workshops led by nonprofit fishing clubs to help attendees improve their fishing skills and knowledge.
Captain Greg represented Learn 2 Fish With Us by leading several Fishing Basics workshops on Saturday and Sunday. Future anglers of all ages learned about fishing equipment and safety, casting techniques and fish identification. The workshops also covered live and artificial bait and the Aquatic Invasive Species message of ‘Clean Drain Dry.’
As a bonus, 100 lucky youth that were the first to attend the Learn 2 Fish workshops received a NPAA Future Pro Shirt and fishing combo’s thanks to the National Professional Anglers Association (What an awesome prize!).
