Why a Fishing Log ?

Got questions? 
Here are answers to common questions and beliefs

Q: I really don’t fish enough to justify buying a Fishing Log. Wouldn’t it be stupid to buy a Fishing Log Book? 

That’s a good question. You are one of the people who could really benefit from the Log Book. Since you fish infrequently you are really going to forget the memories of your fishing outings. With a Fishing Log Book you can look back and relive those memories. If you didn’t catch fish you will have an idea why. If you did catch fish…well use the same techniques again. I find my Log Book most valuable when I haven’t fished for a while or have even skipped a season. We had 4 Hurricanes in Florida the summer of 2003, and severe damage to personal property i.e. NO FISHING. To make a long story short, my Fishing Log Book gave me the reference information to look back and get in the saddle again and get my game on.  A Log Book is a great way from getting rusty.

Q: I don’t need a Fishing Log Book, I store it all in my head or GPS. Why waste my money?

Are you kidding me? $18.95 is less than those lures sitting in your tackle box. You can’t beat the value. As far as your memory here’s a test:

Draw the face of a penny and what’s in it. Go ahead, you have seen one almost everyday of your life. Not so easy is it…buy a Fishing Log Book now.

Q: I keep notes on paper. Why buy a formal Fishing Log Book?

I am glad you are keeping some notes. When was the last time you were able to find those notes? Do your notes have a proven template with the important information you need? I find keeping my information in a Log Book is more organized and a great way to keep a reference library year after year. 

Q: Will a tournament Angler benefit from this Log Book?

If you are a tournament angler I don’t have to tell you the importance of keeping a fishing log, you probably already maintain one. Tournament Anglers that fish local tournaments or travel look back on last years tournament entries as a reference. Many have started using my Fishing Log Book as the “go to log”.

Q: I already Keep a Computer Fishing Log Book. Why should I duplicate efforts?

I applaud your maintaining your catch on a computer or website. I also maintain a spreadsheet with my catch. I still record my day of fishing on good old paper. It only takes about 5 minutes and I can easily refer to my Log Books like that I have a backup and am not rushing to the computer after a day of fishing. Many times my computer is not available where I travel to fish.

Take your fishing to the next level whatever that may be?

 Most successful guides and tournament anglers know the value of keeping a fishing log.  Don’t rely on your memory. What separates the successful angler from the mediocre fisherman is the most important tool he or she possesses. What is this most important and overlooked fishing tool? It’s your memory!

That’s why I created The Fishing Log Book "your mental tackle box". This journal is more than a simple log to record your catch.  The user friendly format was designed so you can easily record and track various conditions such as:  water temperature, tides, barometric pressure, water conditions, gear, moon phases, companions, weather conditions, area fished, bait and lure info., catch info., space for comments and much more. The innovative cross-Ref section allows you to record your catch by species, an index shall we say. This index saves you time by eliminating the need to flip through pages to find successful techniques that YOU have developed. Identify what fishing methods work and don’t work. Did a cold front come through? Did it storm the night before? Wind conditions can change fish habits. Whatever the reason, it will be easier to figure out if you log it. Keep this journal as a reference for years to come If this isn’t enough, how about Capt. Ed's extra bonuses.
