If you answered mostly As…

You are an avid angler! Your love of fishing comes from within, and you are motivated by a desire to outdo your past self and reel in a better catch than ever. Just like any great sport, you know that fishing takes time, practice, and patience, and are more than happy to put in the work to take your on-the-water skills to the next level.

If you answered mostly Bs…

You might be the anchor angler! Whether you’re keeping the boat looking its best, making sure everyone gets up on time for a big day on the water, or simply reminding everyone to reapply their sunscreen, your attention to detail is what keeps your family’s fishing trip afloat. You feel most relaxed when your to-do list is completely checked, which is when you can lean into the fun and cast a line yourself!

If you answered mostly Cs…

You could be a go-with-the-flow angler — and that’s an important position to fill! Even if fishing isn’t your biggest passion in life, your supportive, fun-loving attitude is infectious for everyone else on board. Whether you’re learning a new maneuver or simply soaking in some rays as you cruise, your laidback vibes help make the on-the-water experience even better.

If you answered mostly Ds…

You are the fun-loving angler! Well of course, all fishing is fun by nature — but you take it to the next level with personalized cruising playlists, delicious snacks and refreshments, and party games to enjoy in between catches. You personify the ideal of a carefree cruising experience, and the ride just wouldn’t be the same without you.

Whether you’re an avid angler, anchor angler, go-with-the-flow angler, or fun-loving angler (or perhaps — as we all are — mix of them all), you help take your family’s fishing experience to the next level! Celebrate that on your next splashing adventure.
