The Winnebago 4H Youth where introduced to the Fishing Basics this past Saturday at the Boys and Girls Brigade in Neenah, Wisconsin.  They learned everything from safety while fishing, different fishing combo’s. how to cast and be accurate, knots, fish identification, parts of a fish, Clean Drain Dry message along with many other things.  Many of the youth got to work with out certified angler educators and instructors.  The youth thought the best part of the event when they got to check out the bait.  At the end of the event each youth received a Future Pro shirt which was donated by the National Professional Angler Association (NPAA).  All the youths wanted Greg our certified angler instructor and fishing pro to sign their shirts.  A fun time was had by all!!

This past week angler educator Greg Karch presented his Fishing Basic seminar at the Chicago Muskie Expo.  The seminar started out with Lakken a seven year old explaining what fishing means too him.  Greg then educated the youth and families on fishing which included, safety while fishing, reviewed spincast and spinning combo’s, how to cast, knots, bait used, fish identification, part of a fish, Clean, Drain, Dry message, sportsmanship and catch and release.  After the Fishing Basics seminar, the Illinois Musky Trail handed out there awards to the youth for the muskies they caught this past year.  Once all the awards were handed out each youth was able to build their own Musky Bucktail!!!  How cool is that!!!

Each youth that attended the fishing seminar received a fishing combo or Future Pro Shirt that were donated by the  National Professional Anglers Association.
