Hook, Line & Smiles
Scott
Gudes, Acting NOAA Administrator, and Bill Hogarth, NOAA Fisheries'
Acting Administrator, joined 13 other NOAA volunteers and nearly
400 school kids during the annual Take-A-Kid-Fishing Day
in Washington, DC. The event is a highlight of National Fishing
and Boating Week.
Many of the kids had never fished before, and as they sought out
bass, blue gill and catfish, they simultaneously learned the value
of enjoying our environment without abusing it. The day was a
hit for everyone -- and for recreational fishing.
