How to Become a CARE Instructor

Since 1986, over 750 citizens have been certified as CARE fishing Instructors and gone on to teach introductory level fishing classes around the state. CARE volunteer Instructors are involved with teaching thousands of participants each year through a variety of fishing classes and events. CARE Instructors are stewards of our environment that enjoy sharing their knowledge and love of fishing with others. We are always seeking new Instructors to join our volunteer ranks. If you enjoy the outdoors and are interested in sharing your love of fishing, please consider joining the CARE family as a volunteer fishing Instructor! Apply to become a Let's Go Fishing Certified instructor.

Once certified you will be encouraged and supported by CARE staff and your fellow CARE Instructors as you teach learn to fish classes and events!
