Hey Everyone,

I attended the National Professional Anglers Association (NPAA) meeting the first weekend in January. One of the things that came up for discussion was the Anglers Legacy program. The announcement regarding the NPAA and the Anglers Legacy program is on the front page also.

In a nutshell the program is designed to promote, and foster the sport of angling to those who have never fished, or had the chance to fish. In my case my dad got me started fishing, and it is one of the most enjoyable parts of my life. I am sure many of you have had the same situation where a parent, or another extended member of your family got you started.

So lets return the favor, and make a commitment to take one person fishing that has not fished before. It does not have to be a kid, it can be anyone. Once started fishing a majority of these people will continue fishing on their own.

I signed up and made the pledge to take someone fishing this year, how about you?

The following link will take you there, thanks for supporting the Anglers Legacy program!

The national figures out there show a general decline in young people entering the sport. Anything we can do to increase kids fishing decreases other, less savory activities, like maybe...

Get'em fishing!
