Cast for a Yarn
This is where our journey begins. Discover the Guyiwan Tribe's "Cast for a Yarn" initiative, a powerful program that brings people together on the water to encourage open, honest conversations about mental health.
Fishing for connection, not just fish
Cast for a Yarn is an Aboriginal-led fishing initiative built around a simple but powerful idea—bringing people together on the water to encourage open, honest conversations about mental health. Fishing has always been more than just catching fish; it’s a space where people feel comfortable, where silence isn’t awkward, and where real conversations can happen naturally.
Our mission: bridging minds and waters
We use the relaxed and familiar setting of fishing to create an environment where people can connect, support each other, and have the conversations that matter. Our aim is to raise awareness around mental health and suicide prevention, encourage people to check in with each other, and create safe, everyday spaces for open conversations.
