nothin but net“We are very excited to be partnering with Kris on the publication of this book which is a great fit to the lineup of other youth fishing books that we offer through the Future Fisherman Foundation” stated F3 Executive Director Mark Gintert.

Nothin’ but Net”  tells a great story about a young man who is not your typical Jr. High School Athlete but who finds a great niche in the sport of fishing and he is eventually able to introduce his friends to the sport as well. It is exactly the kind of story that fits our Hooked on Fishing Not on Drugs clientele as well as our SuperFish Program that is coming out this fall” added Gintert.

“I’m thrilled to be teaming up with F3 to publish and distribute Nothin’ but Net ,” said Kris Rutherford, who has also authored three other books. “The organization’s mission is exactly what I had in mind when developing the characters and plot—introducing fishing to youth as a sport they can participate in for a lifetime.”

Anyone interested in purchasing this great read for students of all ages can go to futurefisherman.org and click on the resources tab where you can order your copies of Nothin’ but Net.

For State Parks, Book Stores and other retails locations the Future Fisherman Foundation does have a retail program that will bring this great book to your shelves.
