Fishing With Legends Is Dedicated To Giving Back And Helping Our American Heroes By Connecting Them With God's Great Outdoors.
About Us
Faith. Fishing. Fellowship.
Here at Fishing with Legends, we connect our Combat Veterans to the outdoors in many different ways but mostly use fishing as our main outlet.
Our Goal
Our goal is to create relationships with each and every Veteran we come in contact with, as well as provide them with the tools and teach them the skills to use fishing as an every day stress reliever.
