It has been just over a month since I announced the “Battle of the Back Bay, Catch, Video and Release, Fishing Tournament”.  I am extremely happy to report that this Tournament is on its way to becoming a reality and the allotted thirty team field is filling up fast.  Follow this link for more information and to sign up and have a chance to win $10,000.  www.backbaybattle.com

Since then, alongside of my associates at www.ReelMaxLife.com , we have been working feverishly to get all the loose ends tied up to start our new and exciting endeavor www.anglernetworkusa.com .  What started out as a unique new Fishing Tournament Format has evolved into a completely new Social Network which is made for Recreational Fishermen, by Recreational Fishermen. 

As the supposed “Fishing Expert” of this Network I would like to share why I feel that by working together on this format we can increase our own Fishing Enjoyment and extend that many times over to others that have and will experience the Fishing Fever that drives so many of us.  This will be a place to share our angling experiences, good and bad, with others.  Hopefully there will be those with vast experience that can relate stories about many fish, big and small, of an infinite variety in an infinite number of places. 

Over the more than sixty years of holding a fishing rod in my hand, I have found that there are as many ways to capture a fish as there are reasons for doing so.  Most importantly they are almost all good ones, and I don’t really believe that any are better than the another.  Obviously fishing began on a subsistence level to obtain protein.  Over millennia there has been an evolution of fishing methods and as we, as humans have gone from working just to get enough fish on the table to feed the family for one day to current day where we have developed commercial fishing methods capable of sucking almost the very last fish from the ocean if the restraints of reason are not enforced.  Regulations are probably the most important part of modern fishing and here on Angler Network USA, keeping up with and, friendly debating, on all commercial and recreational fishing regulations will be front and center.

This Network is designed to be 100% Fishing Related.  Now if you are anything like me, anything I do in life is fishing related, but if like me, you have found that Facebook and other Social Media just bombard you with too much useless information and advertisements for things like dick pills and credit cards and friends announcing kid’s birthday parties.  I suggest you settle in here and talk fishing.
