Welcome to Wild About Walleyes as part of our Getting Families Fishing Series.

As you’ll discover in this TV show and related classroom videos, walleye fishing offers you pathways to learning about fish biology, the techniques to having a rewarding family adventure while catching a unique fish, and how to become sustainable anglers who conserve our fish for future generations.

Okay, so there’s several great ways to enjoy and share the fishing fun and education in this show.

First, you can kick back with family or friends to watch this entire half-hour television episode to get the full content in one sitting. Kinda like enjoying a full course meal. Yum-yum.

Then there’s the four shorter, custom segments on the noted links below. These are the custom “classroom” or learning videos with some bonus content designed to share with your entire classroom. On these links below you’ll also find lots of other educational content, including custom lesson activities for your teacher to take your entire classroom on a three to four day journey of peer-driven learning blended with fun and hands-on pathways to try outdoor pursuits yourself.

Whichever way you decide to enjoy the fun and educational content, it’s a win-win way for you to get engaged with pathways to discovering more about yourself and the great outdoors.
