A portion of each Five of Diamonds Pilsner sold supports conservation & RECREATIONAL FISHING programs

Blindman Brewing is located in Lacombe, Alberta (less than 5 minutes from the Len Thompson factory). When the folks at Blindman approached us to use the Five of Diamonds trademark we wanted to help the angling community with a portion of the proceeds. 100% of each royalty received is donated to recreational fishing & conservation programs.

fish stocking

In 2021, Thompson-Pallister Bait Co. Ltd. supported the stocking of 2,800 rainbow trout throughout Central Alberta. Stocked fish ponds offer accessible recreational angling opportunities which we believe is especially important for youth and encouraging the next generation of anglers to fall in love with our sport.

Six locations were chosen and approved by the Alberta Conservation Association including the Camrose County Nature Conservation Center (Camrose, Alberta), Winchell Lake (Water Valley, Alberta), Boulder Lake (Blackfalds, Alberta), Rays Pond (Red Deer County, Alberta), Mound Red Reservoir (Wetaskiwin County, Alberta), Lacombe East Stormwater Pond (Lacombe, Alberta).

The club has grown to produce yearly hundreds of thousands of Rainbow Trout, Brown Trout, Chinook Salmon, Coho Salmon and Atlantic Salmon for stocking in local watersheds.
