Veteran’s Big Fish Friday!

Today we welcomed veterans Dennis, Nick, Doug and Cory on board for an awesome morning of Walleye fishing.

Along with some quick action and a nice mixed bag of fish, the big fish also decided to show up today. Our veteran crew managed to boat multiple walleye over 27”

Thank you to Dennis, Nick, Doug, and Cory for an incredible morning together. More importantly, we thank them for their patriotic service to our country.

Veteran Group Walleye Limit

Earlier this week our Nonprofit organization Cast It Forward welcomed veterans Rodney, Jody and Shaun on board for a morning of much needed R&R.

Thankfully the wind, weather and fish all cooperated and our veteran crew went home with a nice cooler full of Lake Erie’s finest.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time together on the water and sincerely thank these gentlemen for their patriotic service to our country.

Recently our Nonprofit organization Cast It Forward welcomed Air Force veteran Bevan and his lovely wife Mandi onboard.

Although experienced anglers, neither had ever tested their skills on Lake Erie walleye before. Our Great Lake did not disappoint as she blessed them with both size and numbers of Lake Erie’s finest.

It was an awesome and beautiful morning on the water for this husband and wife duo. We are proud to have been able to provide this experience for them and allow them some quality and reflective time together.

Veterans First Time Limit of Walleye

Recently our Nonprofit organization Cast It Forward welcomed veterans and first responders Ed, Chuck and Virgil on board for a morning of camaraderie, reflection and - walleye fishing!

Our morning together was filled with stories, laughter, some good natured ribbing and… lots of fish. Included in their limit catch was one huge catfish along with a beautiful 27” long ‘eye.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time spent together on the water and we thank these gentlemen for their service.

Kids and Family Fishing Fun

Recently, our Nonprofit Organization Cast It Forward, in conjunction with the Cleveland Metroparks held a fishing event for kids and their families at their Garfield Heights Metroparks location.

Attended by over 60 people, this event was designed to teach kids how to fish while spending quality time outdoors with family and friends.

Additionally, every participant received our “Outdoor and Fishing Kit” which consisted of a new rod and reel, stocked tackle kit and many other useful outdoor items.

By gifting these kits, it is our hope that these families will spend time outside and create new outdoor fishing memories together for years to come.

We are thankful for our partnership with the Metroparks and look forward to bringing more impactful events like this to those in our community.
