Frabill, Inc. Renews Support of Future Fisherman Foundation

For more than 70 years, Frabill, Inc. of Jackson, Wis. has been providing trusted gear for freshwater and saltwater anglers, including a wide selection of landing nets, portable aeration systems, bait containers, bait care, bait traps and seines, and other fishing accessories. Frabill also is one of the world's major suppliers of ice-fishing products such as portable ice-fishing shelters, ice-fishing rods and combos, tip-ups, bait containers and portable aeration.

Frabill has long been a key supporter of important Future Fisherman Foundation (F3) youth education programs such as Hooked On Fishing Not On Drugs and Physh Ed, and now the company is stepping up once again to help the foundation ensure the future of fishing.

"F3 works with educators nationwide, training them to deliver high-quality programs that not only provide fishing opportunities for children, but also teach them the importance of preserving our natural resources," said Kelly Marble, Frabill's Sales Director. "We're proud to support that effort in every way we can."

Through the foundation's new Tackle for Educators program, Frabill is offering F3-accredited educators-including Physh Ed teachers, Boys and Girls Clubs, Boy Scout leaders and Hooked on Fishing Not On Drugs leaders-significant discounts on their model 3240 8"x 6" Baitwell Dip Nets and model 3443 20" x 23" Catch and Release Landing Nets (photo at left). The company also will donate a portion of the sales from each 3443 net sold nationwide to support F3 programs.

"Frabill nets are extremely durable and ideal for catch and release, which makes them perfect for use in our programs," said F3 executive director Keith Sutton. "We're glad to make them available to our program leaders and extremely appreciative of Frabill's commitment to help the dedicated men and women nationwide who are educating tomorrow's anglers."

Established in 1986, the Future Fisherman Foundation unites the sportfishing industry and a nationwide network of state outdoor educators, national conservation groups and youth organizations dedicated to introducing America's youth to angling and the outdoors. These efforts help people of all ages have safe and enjoyable fishing experiences that foster conservation ethics.
