Hooked on Fishing presented by the Light Foundation

We believe that fishing is a great way for families to spend time together outdoors, and our events give hundreds of young people each summer a chance to experience the thrill of the sport — some for their very first time.

At each event, we provide information on fish and aquatic life, rules and regulations for fishing, as well as basic instruction on baiting a hook, tying a knot, casting, important tactics on how to catch a fish, and finally how to handle and return fish to the water. Thanks to our sponsors, each event includes the provision of rods, reels, bait, and tackle to participants for 90 minutes of catch-and-release fishing.
