1099 CONTRACTED FISHING GUIDE

For a licensed fishing guide, joining the F•Y•S•H Foundation as a contractor can be a truly rewarding experience. Not only will you have the opportunity to give back to the community and make a difference in the lives of others, but you'll also be able to continue doing what you love - guiding on the water.

As a contractor with the F•Y•S•H Foundation, you'll have the chance to create meaningful and unforgettable experiences for those in need. Whether it's teaching a new angler the basics of casting or guiding a seasoned angler to their personal best catch, your expertise, and guidance can make a huge impact on the lives of those you work with.

In addition to the personal satisfaction of giving back, partnering with the F•Y•S•H Foundation can also provide valuable exposure and networking opportunities for your business. You'll have the chance to connect with a diverse range of anglers and gain new clients who are drawn to your commitment to community service.

By sharing your knowledge, skills, and passion for fishing with others, you'll be serving as an inspiration and role model for those who may have had different opportunities than you. You'll be helping to open doors and provide access to an incredible outdoor experience that can give a sense of peace, joy, and empowerment.

Your time, expertise, and dedication can truly impact the lives of those in need. So if you're a licensed fishing guide looking to make a difference, consider partnering with the F•Y•S•H Foundation as a contractor. 

And if you're an avid angler who wants to give back but are not a licensed guide, we encourage you to visit our other option for a volunteer when considering donating your time and expertise to help teach others how to fish. 

We can make a difference and create a more inclusive and supportive fishing community.
