Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC
Yamaha Motor Canada has signed on as the Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC’s newest Learn to Fish sponsor. Each year, the Society teaches 25,000 youth and their families across BC when, where, and how to fish responsibly. Thanks to the generous support of our Learn to Fish partners (including the Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation, Columbia Basin Trust, BC Ram dealers, Rapala, Teck Highland Valley Copper, and now Yamaha), we’re helping to grow a new generation of anglers.
To celebrate the partnership, Yamaha will award one lucky angler a 6-hp, 4-stroke outboard. Until the end of September, everyone who participates in a Learn to Fish program can enter to win. Full contest rules can be found here.
The Freshwater Fisheries Society is also very thankful to Yamaha Motor Canada for supporting our fisheries research program. Yamaha has generously provided two new motors, free of charge, to replace motors stolen from our research boats this spring.
Learn to Fish programs are held at provincial, regional, and municipal parks throughout BC. We also host programs at our on-site ponds at the Kootenay and Fraser Valley Trout Hatchery Visitor Centres. To find a program near you, visit the Events page at gofishbc.com
