What is National Fishing Week about?
Canada’s National Fishing Week: An Opportunity to Reconnect With Loved Ones
Canada’s National Fishing Week is about to begin, and the Canadian National Sportfishing Foundation (CNSF) is encouraging Canadians to use it to reconnect with each other and with the joy of fishing.
National Fishing Week, June 29 - July 7, 2024, is an annual summertime event designed to help Canadians experience the thrill of recreational fishing. Fishing is a great way to recharge. It is also an easy and affordable way to connect — or reconnect — with friends and family.
“It’s been proven that fishing has a positive impact on mental wellness,” says Mike Melnik, Managing Director of the CNSF. “It’s hard to feel stressed, worried, or lonely when you’re out in nature. And casting a line with somebody you care about is a simple way to connect or reconnect.”
