24 Hour Fish-A-Thon
Check out the 2010 24 Hour Fish-A-Thon presented by BoatUS Angler!’
The Recycled Fish 24 Hour Fish-A-Thon is anglers fishing around the clock and around the country to raise awareness for the problems facing our fisheries, and money to help solve those problems.
Our lakes, streams and seas are in trouble. It is the result of many things, from over-consuming water to over-harvest of fish to pollution to invasive species. Many of the main issues come from problems in our broader environment because our “Lifestyle Runs Downstream.”
Anglers – people who love to fish – are the first to notice, because we spend time on the water observing our surroundings. Problems in our environment often show up first in our waters – it all runs downstream. We’re doing something about it with the 24 Hour Fish-A-Thon.
We’re standing up as not just users of our natural resources, but as stewards. We’re raising the flag for simple things anybody can do to ensure healthy waters for fish and wildlife – and for each of us.

In 2009 anglers from Minnesota to Georgia, Pennsylvania to Nebraska fished for 24 hours straight – find out how they did in our report from last year.
Kevin Workman hoists a chunky Lake Amistad bass. He caught it during the trip of a lifetime with his brother Josh – they got to fish with PAA Pro Angler Kurt Dove in an expenses-paid trip that they won in the 2009 24 Hour Fish-A-Thon.
