In this episode of Mastering Rod Building, host Bill Falconer welcomes Tom and Caroline Lewis, founders of the Kids Can Fish foundation. Caroline, with her father Tom’s support, created the foundation to introduce children and young women to the joys of fishing and the outdoors.

They discuss their mission to break down barriers to fishing by offering free, fully equipped camps and share inspiring stories, including a young angler with disabilities winning a tournament and another discovering a passion for fishing at a Kids Can Fish camp. The episode also highlights their major fundraising event, the Running of the Bulls Charity Surf Redfish Tournament, and how listeners can get involved to support the cause.
