Reflecting on 2024: A Year of Growth and Connection

As the year comes to a close, we’re taking a moment to celebrate what an incredible year 2024 has been! Our team worked tirelessly to share the joy of fishing across Wisconsin, and the results speak for themselves.

This year, we proudly hosted 48 fishing clinics, educating over thirty-five hundred youth, adults and parents to fishing.  Traveling over 4,000 miles, we brought hands-on fishing education to communities across the state. Beyond these youth-focused clinics, we also took part in some of the biggest events in the fishing world, leading seminars at the Wisconsin Ice Fishing Expo in Oshkosh, the Wisconsin Fishing Expo in Madison, and the Milwaukee Sport Show.

Collaboration was a cornerstone of 2024. We partnered with an incredible variety of organizations, including the Boys & Girls Clubs, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, and more. A highlight was launching a middle school fishing club and working with mentally handicapped adults from VPI. Additionally, we supported high school fishing teams with educational sessions, like our popular seminar, Icing Panfish on Your Local Lakes.

In the digital realm, we made waves by expanding our educational content. We created over 20 new fishing videos and added a collection of helpful fishing diagrams to our library. This effort allowed us to extend our reach far beyond in-person events. By year’s end, we had grown our Facebook community to over 28,000 followers and achieved an incredible 14 million organic engagements—proof that the love for fishing connects people across every corner of the state.

As we wrap up 2024, we’re filled with gratitude for everyone who made this year possible—our partners, supporters, volunteers and, of course, the anglers we had the privilege of meeting along the way. Here’s to more adventures and tight lines in 2025!

Cheers to all,
