Keep it Simple
- Fathers do so much to keep their children safe, happy and loved! Why not show your dad (or another special guest) how loved he is with a fishing adventure for his special day? As a Section, invite your dad (or another parent or guardian) for an afternoon of fishing fun to show just how much they mean to you. Many parts of the country offer a free fishing weekend in June or July.
Take it Further
- Mix your fishing adventure with a BioBlitz of what’s in the waters near you and explore how you might protect them. From your BioBlitz, take a look at any invasive species in the waters that are harmful to fish and our waters. Be sure to keep tabs on fishing safety and around other animals and plants.
