Meet Ethan And Learn About His Journey Of Hope!
“They say the sea can heal, that the sound of the waves can bring peace, and that the ebb and flow of the tides can restore balance. Maybe it’s the ocean’s vastness, its untamed nature, or simply that it helps us escape the hustle and bustle of life’s demands. As anglers, many of us experience the restorative escape that being on the water brings.
Sometimes, the healing we seek goes much deeper.
In 2013, at the age of 10, Ethan Fabac found out he had cancer. Through his challenges and treatments, he discovered a love for fishing and conservation that has become a lifelong passion.” -Joseph Simonds.
This is Ethan’s story. The Salt Strong Alliance is honored to share it, with the support of Salt Strong in the production. It serves as a powerful reminder that the sport of fishing needs protection and is worth fighting for.
