Take a Friend Fishing Contest

For the fifth consecutive year, Colorado Parks and Wildlife and our partner Colorado fishing companies are encouraging anglers to take a friend fishing. As a reward for sharing your expertise and love of fishing, we’ve created a contest for mentors who take the time to pass on their knowledge. We are now offering prizes for the mentor as well as the mentee!
 
Mentors, take a beginner angler out or mentees encourage an experienced angler to teach you how to fish and enter to win some great prizes by submitting a photograph and brief story of your time on the water. Submissions will be judged by their ability to inspire.  
 
Winners will be selected at three different times throughout the year (July, October & February). Contest winners will get to choose from the prizes listed below. Both the mentor as well as the mentee will receive a prize. All prizes retail between $300-$900! For more information, please view the Official Rules – Take a Friend Fishing Contest.
 

Colorado Parks and Wildlife reminds anglers that it is up to you to recreate responsibly. Plan to research and understand any specific guidance, ordinances, and restrictions in place for your favorite fishing spots – know before you go.
