Courtney W. - Whose son Noah graduated from the Angler In Training Adventures Program - Online Version

What did you and your family enjoy most about the Angler In Training Adventure program?

"My 8-year-old son, Noah, was eager to learn fishing, but I didn't know the first thing about it! The Reelin Family Fun program was the perfect solution for us. We learned everything together through the weekly Zoom calls – from tying knots to casting basics. The instructors were great at explaining things in a way we could both understand. Now we're excited to start our 'casting into adventure' as a family!"

How did this program benefit your child and family?

"This program was hugely beneficial for both Noah and our family. For Noah(8), it took his excitement about fishing and turned it into real skills he could practice – he was thrilled to learn how to cast and handle the gear! For me, as a parent who knew nothing about fishing, it gave me the confidence and knowledge I desperately needed to actually support his interest. Now, instead of just wishing we could fish, we can fish together."

What's one highlight or memorable moment from your time in the program?

 

"My most memorable moment might just be looking over at Noah during one of the first Zoom calls, seeing him completely absorbed in learning about the fishing gear. It hit me then that this wasn't just a class; we were genuinely starting a new 'adventure' together, just like the program name suggested. That feeling of shared excitement was a real highlight." 

Would you recommend this program to other families? Why or why not?

 "Yes!!! The biggest benefit was giving our family a new shared activity we can enjoy together. Noah was excited to learn, and because the program taught me the basics right alongside him, it became something we could learn and look forward to as a team. It wasn't just him learning; it was us preparing for future 'casting adventures'. It's provided a fantastic new way for us to connect and spend quality time outdoors."

You are experts in your field and your experience and knowledge are extensive.

What did we do that you really liked about our service?

On a scale of one to ten, how likely are you to recommend our product or service to others?

I give it a 10 out 10.

“Connections to the natural world are vital for all of us, and it is sometimes hard to help people make those connections. Reelin Family Fun made those connections happen in a fun, encouraging, affirming, laid-back way. They provided an amazing experience for the students in our program.”
