The first ever North American Fishing Challenge is set to go for Saturday, June 19th -- a multi-species app-based fishing tournament, in support of Adult & Teen Challenge programs across the U.S and Canada. Through this day of fishing, 14 Adult and Teen Challenge centres across North America will find support, through a fun and unique way to raise pledges, and face a challenge, of catching the "big one".

Daniel Emond is the CEO of Adult & Teen Challenge of Central Canada, and joined Golden West on-air host Jayme Giesbrecht to share some details:

The goal is to raise $300,000. And with so many lakes and fishing spots in Manitoba, it seems like teams here will have the upper hand!

Thank you for those details, Daniel. We have many experienced anglers in Southern Manitoba, who know all the best spots to catch those big fish. And you can sign up your team, by heading to www.teenchallenge.tc/events/fishing
