    Individuals being certified must attend two free training sessions. One session covers program policy and CPR certification; the other covers ethics, pond ecology, rules and regulations, equipment and safety.

    Default Googan definition

    I think we all started out as googans. Look at this definition I found in the urban dictionary, pretty harsh.

    Googan -
    A googan is an offshore fishermen who constantly loses fish that the average fishermen would catch. 'Googans' tend to 'set the hook' when using circle hooks. A googan would not survive if stranded on a desert island with all the fishing tackle in the world, because a googan does not know how to tie the simplest of fishing knots.


    A fishing (not sexual) term for lowlife, shore(bank) fishermen who baitfish typically without a license, regard to regulations, and etiquette towards other people, especially other fishermen following the rules.
    "Damn, I couldn't find a spot at the river yesterday. It was totally full of googans hogging up the place, dropping f-bombs, and snagging fish."

    This is a program they have. Again they are looking for some volunteers. Maybe you know someone from the area who would be interested.

    CONCORD, N.H.—New Hampshire officials want anglers to share their love of fishing by teaching others how to fish.




    The New Hampshire Fish and Game Department is seeking experienced anglers to volunteer as instructors for its Let's Go Fishing Program.

    To become an instructor, volunteers must get certified by attending two free training sessions covering the policies and procedures of the program, CPR certification, and a hands-on fishing or fly-fishing class.

    The first of the training sessions will be held on Saturday, April 10
