HOFNOD is the flagship education program of the national Future Fisherman Foundation.

Programs are designed for youth ages 5 and older. Parents, older siblings and anyone who likes to fish are encouraged to participate. Although being an active outdoorsman is a plus, it is not a requirement for volunteers. Anyone can take a child fishing or serve as their mentor. A love for children is the main ingredient for success.

Through this program, HOFNOD participants will:

• Learn all the skills necessary to fish safely on their own in a variety of settings.
• Attain the ability to teach others.
• Adopt fishing as a wholesome pastime and be encouraged to enjoy it regularly with their friends and family.
• Take an active role in conservation in their community.
• Develop ethical attitudes about the outdoors.
• Be empowered by a new, fun activity to develop positive lifestyles, such as creative decision-making, problem-solving, patience, and camaraderie.
• Develop better communication skills.
• Gain new confidence and find a new sense of respect and responsibility for themselves, their friends and family, and community.
