Event History
In 1990 the Brainerd Jaycees set a goal to create a project that would rally members and
volunteers, provide opportunities for individual leadership, and bring an economic
impact to the Brainerd Lakes Area during the winter months. The founders never
expected this event would become the world’s largest charitable ice fishing contest and
put Brainerd on the map for winter tourism with an event that generates more than $1million in revenue for area businesses and more than $150,000 for area charities each
year.
Fun Facts

and execute the event.

Recycled Fish is the national non-profit organization of anglers living a Lifestyle of
Stewardship both on and off the water, because "Our Lifestyle Runs Downstream".
"Limit Your Catch – Don’t Catch Your Limit!" It’s a "catch phrase" that’s "caught on."
When Recycled Fish started back in 2004, spreading the word on Catch and Release
and Selective Harvest was our primary message. It’s bigger than that now. Today,
we’re a national movement of fisherman who live a lifestyle of stewardship on and off
the water.
Or it should be said, "Catch and Release alone won’t solve the problems facing our
fisheries." If we want more and bigger fish in our waters, now and for our kids, a
lifestyle of stewardship is what it’s going to take, because our Lifestyle Runs
Downstream.
Recycled Fish is leading the charge on a Lifestyle of Stewardship among people
who love to fish.
