Ok – so our team posed the question “Who do you love to go fishing with” and surprisingly (or maybe not!) the answers were pretty random…

Thanks to all that added their preferred fishing companions on www.GetREELed.com and our Ultimate Fishing Directory and www.GetREELed.com Facebook fan pages. It’s nice to get some insight into everyone’s favourite past-time and see how happy this sport can truly make us!

So, the results …

Several people commented that they enjoy spending their fishing days with an old buddy; someone to have a beer or two (or three?) with after a long day and get away from their every day lives for just a while.

Then there are those of us that prefer going out alone – just you, yourself and … well just you . It’s a great way to give ourselves time to think, to get away from it all and just relax (which we all need these days). Plus it doesn’t hurt that you can focus on the real goal of the day – finding a nice catch!!

BUT, the most descriptive and really passionate answers came from the many people that said their family members were the favourite choice.

This included Dads, grandparents, husbands/wives, kids, and the of course the beloved family pet that offers nice company (but doesn’t scare the fish away with chatting!).

Just look at how much fun Marcia is having with her cocker spaniel, Jake in the photo…

So, the next time you want to go fishing by yourself, or even with your regular buddy, invite someone along that maybe doesn’t get a chance to fish often so you can share the great experience with them. Or reconnect with an old group of friends you may not have seen in a while.

And pass along to everybody the spots you most often fish, or even fishing tournaments (which you can post on the Ultimate Fishing Directory and GetREELed special events.

Whatever your preference, take time to enjoy it! I hope you all have a great time fishing the next time you get a chance!

Tight lines everybody & Happy Fishing!!
