Hey Kids, Write About Fishing, Win A Boat
By Tim Romano
A while back I wrote about a website called FishyKid.org. The site was, "inspired by two fathers who enjoy the sport of fly fishing and want to do their part in passing along the virtues of the outdoors to their children as well as the families within the online angling community."
Last year they did a coloring contest with rods and reels for prizes, but it's this year's contest that really caught my eye. Fishykid's new writing contest is for anyone 17 years old or younger. The winner will take home a $900 NuCanoe. The boat is described as sit-on-top kayak/sport canoe and looks like a fishing machine. You thought Deeter and I gave away some sparkly prizes...
The topic for the writing contest is: Why are the outdoors and spending time on the water so important to you? I thought all of our younger readers and everyone's kids would like a shot at this one.
The complete entry rules are here.
Good Luck Kiddos.

I love the work they are doing, but from everything I've seen, online voting for prizes is a croked game to see who has more online friends. I wish they would have a panel that votes on them and calls it good.
Nice to see these contests popping up more and more. It's saddening to see how many kids now are obsessed with video games or other stupid stuff (drugs...) I for one, am not. Hunting, fishing (Flyfishing) and motocross are my main things. Well, girls too, lol. But I like seeing these Deeter. Thanks for posting.
Ooop. Sorry Tim, lmao. Read it but not the poster, My bad.
i am gonna have to try this im 15 so wish me luck
