GRAND DOOR PRIZE:

Each Family registered will have a ballot entered into a draw to win the Grand Door Prize- a 1-day guided fishing trip with Marlon Prince!

Marlon is a licensed professional guide and is credited by many as a pioneer of musky fly fishing in New Brunswick. Marlon has presented as a guest speaker/fly tier at various events, is a standing board member of Muskies Canada, and an advocate for the conservation of New Brunswick’s incredible natural resources.

“My ultimate goal as a guide is simple. Work with my guests and plan our trip based on what their ideal day on the water looks like. Cast, troll, flyfishing? Take a break and have a swim or a shore lunch? Just let me know!”

You and a friend can join Marlon in his boat for an 8-10hr day on the water, fishing for your choice of musky, bass, pickerel, trout, or salmon. All equipment will be provided by Marlon.
