Free Fishing SEMINARS

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Would you attend a FREE Fishing Work Shop and Seminar series?

Thanks for trying to organize and host presentations like this again.

I'd appreciate one presentation addressing only sonar interpretation. Many times this year, I've been unable to interpret the display on my colour sonar unit. The newer sonar units allow saving screen displays. A presentation of saved screen displays and their interpretation might be beneficial to many Fish-Hawkers.

Just got back into Bass fishing 3 years ago and I would sure need to learn a few different techniques.

Flippin and Pitchin comes to mind.

Boat and trailer maintenance

Definitely Sonar 101!!!
When hell freezes over, I'll be there icefishing!!!

If you can't stand behind our troops,
Please feel free to stand in front of them!!!

These are all great topics and thank you for sharing them.

I am in the works of contacting presenters for the upcoming seminars.

Keep checking back and I will update you as soon as plans fall into place.

I would love to see a seminar on fish behaviour relating to weather (ie cold fronts, really windy days, change in seasons...etc.) and sonar 101

Cheers,

I like this idea, proper fish handling, using nets, even catch and release could be stressed a bit more now days. With so many more people enjoying the sport today then ever, it's so important for the future of fishing. I like eating fish as much as the next guy, but what good is all this tackle and equipment with poor populations of fish in the waters.

Flipping and pitching
Seasonal transitions for bass (both LM & SM)

Obviously things are still in planning phases, but is there a time frame these seminars would take place?
