Rudy Pedersen, Freshwater Fishing Guide
Hi my name is Rudy Pedersen, I am a fishing guide at Wollaston Lake Lodge. This year, I received my certificate as a professional freshwater fishing guide.
I chose this certification for the professional requirements and the standards set in the industry.
I got started in tourism due to Covid-19 and wanting a change, along with allergies from my previous profession. I love working with people and seeing tourists enjoy their vacations, along with getting to know people from all walks of life and the stories that come with it.
I believe tourism is a vital component of growth in Canada's economy and culture. Seeing people have the trip of their life time brings a smile to my face.
