Wedding Day, August 27, 2005
“What do you mean you ‘fish,’” Hanna asked. “Off a bridge with a bobber?”
“No. In a bass boat, with a 200 horsepower motor, and more lures than you can imagine. You have so much to learn.”
Fifteen years later she gets it. The full picture. We fish together. We travel together. Now we write together, too. We may only be celebrating 6 months of blogging harmony, but today – on our 15th anniversary – it’s obvious why we have so much to celebrate and write about.
We’ve lived our mission statement: to continue to provide you with the tools and information to keep fishing fun and make the most of your remaining casts, through travel hacks, equipment advice, trip reports and unfiltered opinions.
If there’s ever a fancy, high-tech bobber to report on, we’ll be there, but until then feast your eyes on some of our experiences come to life.

For many of us, the Improved Clinch Knot was the first one we learned. Some of us still use it. It may not test stronger than some other, but it’s remarkably easy to tie correctly. You can improve your chances of landing big fish to the boat with the Double Clinch Knot.
