The Art and Science of Minnesota Angling
A great day spearing with the Grand Rapids Darkhouse Angling Association! Kids saw the spearing set up process, observed pike, and harvested a few fish! Great day for future spearers!
The next generation of anglers will be just fine, if we just take them!
Chelsie Brown interviewed anglers about the program! Very cool!
A VERY generous donation from the Grand Rapids and Nashwauk Community Fund to Spartan Angling! The organization came to the school and presented the donation. Special thanks to the Peter and Gloria Burich Fund!
Lee Church graced us with his presence and showed some beautiful photography of fish from all over the world! He is also in the military, and we thank him for his sacrifice and service! Lee is an avid fly fisherman and showed some of his hand tied lures!

A huge thank you to the Grand Rapids Chapter for a monetary donation to Spartan Angling! We also have partnered with the organization and will be taking the whole class spearing in December and again in January! Most kids have never been spearing, so this is an incredible opportunity for them! Thanks Rick!
Dave from Itasca Waters gave a lesson on watersheds and shoreline management to Spartan Angling! He also gave kids a guide for lake stewardship.
A huge thank you to Women’s Anglers of Minnesota for a huge donation of open water and ice fishing rod/reel combos. The organization used members around the state to deliver the rods to the high school! Such generosity!
Students caught some nice fish in September! Beautiful colors outside!
Some students boated their first pike and walleye! Fish memories made!!!!
A huge thank you from Spartan Angling by providing our fishing class with 4 spinning and 4 bait casting combos! These donations will be used in our lending library and will be open to student use for this open water season and many more to come! The quality is excellent and incredibly sensitive rods for a variety of species in northern MN! Thanks!
