Take Me Fishing

Remember your first fish? Remember sharing great times with grandparents, parents, your children, or your buddies on the water? Those memories are what hooked us on fishing and I am asking you to share those memories with people who haven´t fished before or just haven´t been out in awhile. By taking someone fishing, you´re not only helping them create their own fond memories, instill a sense of responsibility and stewardship for our precious natural resources and assure the future of fishing for all of us.

Anglers´ Favorites

The Department of Natural Resources has joined forces with the national Take me Fishing [exit DNR] campaign which encourages everyone to participate in the leisurely, family-friendly experience of fishing and enhance their appreciation of the natural world.

Over the next year, Wisconsin, alongside 29 states nationwide, will participate in an effort to reach out to former and new anglers, and encourage them to buy a license and get out on the water.
