The entertainment and educational information you’ll find here will help guide you on the journey of personal discovery of fishing with friends and families on America’s National Forests. The feature videos offer a collection of broadcast television shows seen on the Emmy-winning Into the Outdoors Education Network. Besides fishing in these select forests, you’ll also discover classroom educational videos with lesson activities that inspire today’s youth to embrace the outdoors on our National Forests.

Why provide these pathways? Well, it’s ironic that the average American spends seven (7) hours of “screen time” a day yet most can’t recall even one of those hours that made their lives more personally rewarding or created lasting memories. But ask anyone from 8 to 88 what’s one of the most vivid and personally rich minutes of their life, and you’ll likely hear the story of catching their first fish… with many sharing that family adventure on America’s National Forests.

Yet despite over 220,000 miles of fishable streams and rivers, and more than 10 million acres of fishable lakes and reservoirs on our National Forests and Grasslands, too few Americans explore this untapped and free outdoor angling treasure. That’s why the information here can help inspire and guide you to explore the lasting rewards of fishing America’s National Forests.
