International Panfish Appreciation Day

Well, it's been finalized. The second saturday of May will now be a holiday to all who are employed by the federal, provincial, and municipal goverments. Knows internationally as Panfish Appreciation Day or P.A.D for short  2012 will be the first year for this historic and well thought-out event.

And just look at this little guy! So bright and hopeful. It's truly a damn shame this holiday wasn't put into place years ago. BTC is a firm believer in promoting the active targeting of panfish because as some of you may know, they fight hard on light gear ( fly guys, give it a shot!) and they taste wonderful. Don't knock it until you've tried it





 

So whether you are in southern ontario, planning to put the hurt on some black crappie, or maybe high up in the muskoka's taking those springtime blues out on the local perch population, enjoy the day set aside for these worthy adversaries! And don't be afraid to put a meals worth in the livewell either!
