A SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SUPPORTERS

The_History_Of_Sportfishing_boy fishing with can of worms

This project is unlike any other. It was born from a collaboration of men and women from all walks of life who love this sport, and all that it represents. From deck hands to industry leaders, thanks to their generous support, we were able to kick off the project by preserving an invaluable batch of rapidly decaying antique 8mm, 16mm, and 35mm fishing films given to us for safekeeping.

Since then, we have moved into an exciting new production phase that has built an even larger collaboration among multiple financial and educational supporters and our project’s writers, photographers, videographers, and historians.

If you or someone you know would like to come onboard as a supporter, please contact our Executive Producer, Michael Fowlkes (insidesportfishing@mac.com).
