He and Rodriguez helped local youth learn essential fishing skills like how to cast a line, bait a hook, identify fish and more \u2013 all while graciously starring in many selfies taken with starstruck young fans. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Fishing is a great way to connect with nature and create memories \u2014 not only for Daniella and me, or for me and my family, but also for these kids and their families,&#8221; says Correa. &#8220;It also teaches you the importance of dedication \u2014 a skill that&#8217;s been essential for me out on the ballfield. There&#8217;s nothing like catching your first fish to teach you the satisfaction of accomplishing something you&#8217;ve worked hard for. Partnering with RBFF to pass this on to younger generations is an effort I&#8217;m proud to be a part of.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bass Pro Shops is committed to connecting kids and families to nature and inspiring the next generation of outdoor stewards,&#8221; said <span class=\"xn-person\">Steve Dooley<\/span>, general manager of Bass Pro Shops Outdoor World in <span class=\"xn-location\">Katy, Texas<\/span>. &#8220;Partnering with RBFF and Fishing&#8217;s Future to teach fishing skills will greatly benefit the future of conservation.

Today,<i>FishingsFuture.Org<\/i>\u00a0is more committed to achieving this goal than ever before. FFCs and other angling outreach events bring the joys of fishing to new communities and families across the nation. A\u00a0FFC is a full day of education and excitement where Jr. Anglers and their parents learn the skills, knots, methods, rules, and techniques necessary to fish independently and then immediately apply those newly learned skills fishing during the last part of the\u00a0FFC. Fishing&#8217;s Future also conducts\u00a0Family Fly Fishing Camps (FFFCs),\u00a0Family Kayaking Camps (FKCs) and holds many other angling outreach events. In 2007, Fishing&#8217;s Future was granted 501 c(3) non-profit status, and began an ambitious national initiative to draw children ages 6-16 and their families outdoors &#8211; to show them what they have been missing, and at the same time create bonds between children, parents and our natural environment.<\/p>\n<p><b>About Bass Pro Shops:<br \/><\/b><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.basspro.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Bass Pro Shops<\/a>\u00a0is <span class=\"xn-location\">North America&#8217;s<\/span> premier outdoor and conservation company.
