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.
We are offering education – both in person and virtual – to teach new hunters how to get started and to give experienced hunters the tips and tricks they need to elevate their skills.
