Bay de Noc Great Lakes Sports Fishermen

GLSF also provides scholarship each year to a student at Bay de Noc Community College who is competing studies in an area which will enhance our environment.

In a effort to provide people of all ages with an opportunity to enjoy the out of doors, and fishing in particular, this organization has worked endlessly to restock walleye into the bays and inland lakes, plant trout in local streams,created partnerships with other agencies and organizations, such as the Michigan DNR, Wild Life Unlimited of Delta County, Mead Corportation, Michigan Habitat Foundation and Wildlife Forever to name a few, to provide barrier free access to fishing areas, improve landing sites, and habitat for fish reproduction and plant more fish into the area lakes and streams.

By holding local catch and release tournaments, as well as hosting the MWC tournaments, the sport fishermen and women have raised money to build and maintain two rearing ponds, raised hundreds of thousands of walleye fry to the fingerling stage, and release them back into the bays.

In cooperation with many other clubs, such as Kids First, Delta Cancer Alliance, and Big Brother/Big Sisters, they continue to promote fishing as a family activity in the community. Three times during the year the GLSF is involved in "Kids Free Fishing" derbies which are totally free of charge. In addition, food, prizes, trophies, as well as educational seminars are included.

Come join us in providing a good family orientated sport for kids of all ages and abilities in the beautiful Bays de Noc!
