NPAA Conference AWESOME
 

This years event was Awesome. The number of members continue to grow with a lot of kids joining. This picture is showing the 3 newest members of Worldwide Marine Pro staff, Brycen Burkhart, Cutler Hudak and Red Mochan. Lance Valentine donated a trip in the spring for Monster walleyes on the Detroit river and I bought the trip. All the proceeds from the auction go directly into the Future Anglers Foundation. We use these funds to get rod and reel combos to the first 100 kids at all our tournaments. Take a look into joining. It is a great group of guys that love helping kids learn about fishing. NPAA.org. Thanks Bob Luellen #430

Great NPAA conference
 

Bob Luellen from Worlwide Marine has a passion for the fishing industry and passion for our youth's success. His generosity makes that apparent. His donations as well as other raised somewhere around 16k for the future anglers foundation. This foundation provides 100 rod and reel combos to youth at tournaments all over the us. Please consider joining the NPAA to support our youth. A kid with a passion for fishing is less likely to end up with a passion for things that lead to no good.

Just returned from the NPAA Conference in Wisconsin Dells with my son Brycen (the kid to the left in Bob's Picture). It was an event packed weekend! It felt like more of a week long trip to be honest. It was a great time to meet and network with other Anglers, Guide/Charter Fisherman, Manufacturers, Industry Specialist and Professionals, etc. Got to meet a lot of great people and fisherman who I knew but have never met. Got to see and chat with a lot of people who we rarely see. The seminars were great with a lot of important information. Also enjoyed the fellowship and the many many conversations with everyone! Brycen Burkhart and I also got to enjoy the water park with Michael Mochan and his boys.
If you are not a member of the NPAA take a look, they offer some great discounts and programs that make it worth while being a member. The organization does so much for kids and future anglers. They are really invested in the future of our sport. If you are a competitive fisherman, a fishing guide/charter, a manufacturer, or have a fishing related business I would highly recommending looking into it. If you plan to do this stuff in the future join now and start learning and networking now. Not everyone is Pro nor do you need to be to join!
