Learn To Hunt and Fish Series
The knowledge you need to bridge the gap between CORE and the great outdoors
Have you ever wanted to take that plunge into the outdoors to join the ranks of sourcing the cleanest proteins available as a hunter? Perhaps you already have your hunting license, and are looking for some tips and tricks, and to fill some gaps in your knowledge.
Ever wanted to chuck a line into a lake but have no idea where to start?
The new B.C. Wildlife Federation Learn to Hunt and Fish Series is for you.
Episodes will cover everything from virtual sessions with the BC Conservation Officer Service that touch on common infractions in the backcountry, and how you can avoid them- to learning how to hunt turkey, as well as how to fish for kokanee, and more!
A BCWF membership gets you free access to all episodes of the Learn to Hunt and Fish Series! Presentations are $30 an episode (except those offered by the BC Conservation Officer Service, and our first “Biology of a Trout Lake with Brian Chan” presentation, which are free to all)
$56 for a membership for a year gets you live access to all episodes, as well as the ability to replay them at your convenience if you missed one! Get yours today at bcwf.bc.ca/membership!
Note: You must be an active BCWF member prior to the session to be able to access it for free. No refunds will be provided for joining after an episode has occurred.

Learn to Flyfish with Brian Chan: How to Fish Shrimp and Leeches
Brian Chan of Riseform Flyfishing Ventures presents Lesson 7 in our Learn to Flyfish series, “How to Fish Shrimp and Leeches”
Wednesday, June 21, 2023 at 7:00pm PST via Zoom
Freshwater shrimp or scuds are the “bread & butter” food source of trout in productive still waters. The presence of shrimp in a lake indicates nutrient rich water and the potential for growing large fish. Leeches are an opportunistic food source that fish will eat in both juvenile and adult life stages. These aquatic segmented worms are highly sought out by trout at all times of the open water season but are particularly important food sources in the early spring and late fall periods.
