FISHING
You can give a person a fish and they’ll eat for the day, I can teach them to fish, and they’ll eat for a lifetime.
INTERACTING
Communicate with like minded individuals or groups with similar mindsets.
SHARING
Share your story with a fellow Brother or sister on how you deal with PTSD, Anxiety or TBI.
HEALING
Heal your soul from the inside, create a feeling of One with the water, the surrounding islands and your fellow Brothers and Sisters as we all have each other’s back!
For me, Mission Fish is an extended family. I go out with you guys once a year, and it's so refreshing and therapeutic to fish among fellow veterans. I am so grateful for being an active participant in some of your events.

I have been a first responder for 20 years in EMS. Last year I was invited on a trip with MiSSION Fish, my first time ever. Being on that boat for that day was what I needed, from being around others that I can share stories with, to being in the moment, caring only about whether or not I have a fish on the line. The comaraderie I felt the second I got there was amazing. Having the
11:11 ceremony to honor our fallen is just one of the ways the organization illustrates their commitment to showing respect. MISSION Fish creates that opportunity to heal for us to each time we head out on the water.

Mission Fish was outstanding! Great time with other veterans! We caught a lot of fish and the weather at Anacapa Islands was perfect! The BBQ afterwards was fantastic along with all the great raffle prizes! I highly recommend to all Vets and 1st Responders!
