Count on anglers to find the positives in a challenging situation! 🎣❤️

Our hearts go out to everyone affected by one of the most destructive hurricane seasons in recent memory. In the face of adversity, it’s incredible to see the resilience and spirit of the community - even if that means finding a little humor in fishing right in the middle of your street. In times like these we could all use the powerful physical and mental benefits of casting a line. 

In all seriousness, stay strong and help out your fellow humans. We’re all in this together. If you are interested in making a donation, visit the @americanredcross.
