Fish 'n fils is a project created by Martin Bibaud and his sons to promote outdoor family activities and the next generation of anglers. Their goal? To share their passion and stimulate the future of fishing through promotion and introduction to the activity.
Fish 'n son's activities
Fish 'n fils participates in a multitude of events: trade shows, festivals, fishing trips and many others.
The organization provides fishing huts free of charge to interested individuals, in addition to supplying the necessary equipment and bait. This initiative aims to show people that fishing can be accessible and affordable, while allowing them to enjoy a pleasant and unforgettable experience with their families!
Furthermore, Fish 'n Fils members organize introductory fishing trips, where they make it their mission to educate young participants. Resource conservation is central to their teaching. That's why they explain how to release fish back into the water. This awareness is important so that the next generation can also enjoy this wonderful activity.
The movement has grown significantly since its inception five years ago. This is why Martin Bibaud has gradually surrounded himself with ambassadors and volunteers. Today, more than thirty people work tirelessly alongside him to promote family fishing throughout Quebec.
Fish 'n fils' contribution to Quebec
In partnership with the Ministry of Forests, Wildlife and Parks, Fish 'n fils is issuing Relève fishing permits to children aged 9 to 12 who wish to have one. These children will then benefit from a free fishing permit until they turn 18.
In addition, the organization contributes to the seeding of waterways through its actions and resources.
He also gives back to the community by collecting used fishing equipment, which he repairs and redistributes to children who do not have the opportunity to acquire it.
This movement has gained such momentum that its growth is essential. New projects are therefore on the horizon, including the creation of a website and expansion into Ontario and the United States with Fish 'n kidz.
