Every June, anglers across America make one simple commitment: bring someone new to fishing. A friend. A neighbor. Your kids. Give the gift of the cast.
National Take a Friend Fishing Month happens every June – a nationwide call to anglers to bring someone new to the water. Whether it’s their first time holding a rod or a friend who hasn’t fished in years, the goal is simple: share the experience.
Fishing’s Future leads the charge, connecting passionate anglers, influencers, and outdoor brands to amplify the message and help more families across the U.S. discover the joy of fishing.
“Fishing is one of the most powerful ways to connect with the people you love and the outdoors around you. NTFF Month exists to make that happen – one first cast at a time.”
Grow participation in fishing by empowering existing anglers to introduce new people to the sport they love.
A month-long national effort with events, tournaments, social campaigns, and educational resources running coast to coast.
From freshwater lakes in Texas to coastal bays in Maine — NTFF Month reaches anglers in every region of the country.
Driven by an Angler & Influencer Coalition, brand sponsors, tournament partners, and thousands of everyday anglers.
Every action — big or small — helps grow the sport and put more people on the water for the first time.
The heart of NTFF Month. Grab a rod, pick someone who’s never cast a line (or hasn’t in years), and get them on the water. No excuses — this is the one.
Connect with the NTFF Month Angler & Influencer Coalition. Follow their journey, catch their content, and share it forward to grow the movement all month long.
Before you go, make sure you’re covered. Purchase a fishing license unless you’re exempt in your state.
Your gift helps Fishing’s Future take more families fishing across the U.S. every year.
Help ensure your guest has a great time. Fishing’s Future online courses prep you to be a great first-time guide.
Two competitive events happening this month. All skill levels welcome. Big fun, bigger community.
