About

With fishing being in our family for over 50 years, it was our late father who drove us to start Hero Fishing in 2017. After his retirement under disability and a Army Veteran, he had the ability to go fishing everyday. He would take out friends, friends of friends and neighbors and he would teach them how to fish, rig a pole, operate the boat, and he did that expecting nothing in return, it was a privilege for him to teach the young and old about recreational fishing.

 

My brother followed my father footsteps into the military, as a National Guard Member, during his tour in Iraq and an injury due to a IED, he became a Combat War Veteran and received an purple heart. My brother is still active with the National Guard and another inspiration on why Hero Fishing is formed and our mission to help others.

 

Since 2017 my wife and I have been privately funding our fishing adventures, we have since applied for 501(c)(3) status to be able to help more Heroes out.  We currently offer all expense paid trips to all of our Heroes, we have gone from 2 trips a year to 8 in 2021. In 2022 we hope to create a kids fishing event, with games, educational seminars, family activities and  fishing contest.  100 % of all proceeds go into Hero Fishing Adventure Trips, they do not go towards salaries of our members.  

“The act of fishing – for fish, dreams or whatever magic is available – is enough. It transports us to a special world, and a state of mind, where we are free.“
Fennel Hudson
