Fishing Clinic we held prior to Bago Walleye Club tournament weigh-in

Sunday I did a Fishing Clinic prior to the Bago Walleye Club weigh-ins at Menominee Park in Oshkosh.  After a tough day of fishing it was great to come in to talk and teach fishing to the kids.  All the kids went home with a fishing combo and NPAA Future Angler Shirt!!!  A big thanks to Karen Karch for helping to set everything up as I was fishing the torunament and Tim Euting for helping and allowing me to come in early.  Thanks to all my sponsors for allowing me to help with growing the great sport of FISHING!!

High Cliff State Park Fishing Clinic Feedback

Yesterday I received this email for the Fishing Clinic I did at High Cliff State Park:

Hi Greg and Karen,
Just wanted to send a special thank you for putting on probably the best program for kids and families that we have ever had at the park. We have had tremendously positive feedback from the adults, and I am still getting replies from those who attended.  I hope that we met your expectations and that you will consider coming back in the future. Perhaps we could resurrect our Outdoor Skills Day and have you as our featured guest. Just a thought!

This past weekend was Wisconsin’s free fishing weekend.  On Sunday I attended the 2013 Huntn & Fishn Expo at Devil’s Lake State Park in Baraboo, Wisconsin.  I presented my Fishing Basic seminar at 1 PM.  Prior to the seminar I helped families while fishing and worked with kids on casting utilizing Backyard Bass.  It was quit cold and windy in the morning so most of the kids spent time casting for Backyard Bass.  All the kids attending the event received a fishing or hunting prize!!!  There where over one hundred kids in attendance with just as many parents!!  Had a great time.  What a great organization and event.
